Key Features

LAB air bearing stages require pressurized air in well-defined conditions to guarantee the optimal performance and the unlimited lifetime of the air bearing systems as intended by our R&D team. Therefore, we provide a selection of air filter accessories to alleviate the task of air preparation.

Our products require clean, oil-free and dry air at a constant air pressure to be delivered to the motion stages. LAB uses the ISO 8573-1:2010 Class 1.3.1 standard to specify the required air quality. The requirements included in this standard are listed here.

To achieve these stringent air quality levels, a careful approach to component selection is needed. When using an oil-free air compressor and storage tank with draining point, LAB’s air filter units can be used to reach the required air quality level. The following schematic shows a layout of the general system setup.

We use the ISO 8573-1:2010 Class 1.3.1 standard to specify the required air quality. The requirements included in this standard are the following:



Class 1: particulate

In each cubic meter of compressed air, the particulate count should not exceed 20.000 particles in the 0,1 – 0,5 micron size range, 400 particles in the 0,5 – 1 micron size range and 10 particles in the 1 – 5 micron size range.

Class 3: water

We have a large network of suppliers, but we want to keep the final production step under tight control. That is why we operate multiple turning machines to be able to shorten delivery times while maintaining a high quality standard.



Class 1: oil

In each cubic meter of compressed air the amount of oil is limited to 0,01 mg. This is a total limit for liquid oil, oil aerosol and oil vapor combined.
