Custom
Design |
|
|
At
Nelson Air, custom does not mean expensive! We regularly work with
a variety of OEM's and R&D labs to provide designs that are
integrated into a product, used for custom fixturing or used in
special laboratory apparatus. We can quickly develop a design based
on an application's specific requirements, provide detailed engineering
drawings and CAD models, give accurate price and leadtime quotes
and assemble the products with the highest quality and performance.
By working from our extensive catalog of designs we can complete
new designs in a few days and provide these custom products at a
cost lower than similar catalog parts from other companies.

 |
- We
use Solidworks™ 3-D parametric solid modeling to quickly
and accurately design our parts, ensuring that they fit
and function right the first time. This also allows us to
share design files in dxf, dwg, sat, iges and Pro Engineer
formats so our customers get accurate drawings and models
quickly and easily.
- We
have experience in analysis and modeling of precision systems
using standard calculations and FEA and understand the complex
issues associated with nanometer accuracy positioning.

Air
Bearing Repair |
|
|
 |
Nelson
Air has built a such a strong reputation for high quality and excellent
service that many former customers of other manufacturers send us
their air bearings for refurbishment and repair. We can disassemble,
regrind, replace nozzles, or do whatever it takes to restore your
bearings to their original specs or better. |

|
Grinding
and Assembly |
|
| The
key to producing high quality air bearings is accurate grinding and
assembly. Nelson Air has extensive expertise in these areas and offers
these services to its customers. Using in-house built equipment and
proprietary techniques Nelson Air routinely achieves accuracies and
tolerances other shops wouldn't even attempt. By employing highly
trained technicians and proper equipment Nelson Air can deliver precision
assemblies with outstanding quality and price. |
