Air cushion Mobile Platform

Our air cushion mobile platform is a new generation developed transport vehicle for heavy loads. By compressing air into the air cushions set up at the bottom of the platform and then keeping the air leaked out of the air cushions, a very thin air layer is formed between the air cushions and the ground, therefore the platform and the cargo are both “floating” on the ground. The friction between the air cushions and the ground is so tiny that the vehicle designed for carrying several hundred tons could travel omnidirectionally at a very small driving force.

The platform holds over ten patents, functions of which include self-leveling, precision travel, anti-collision, remote control and multi-platform cooperation. The platform covers loading capacity ranging from 3 tons to 1400 tons, successfully applied in engineering areas such as aerospace, aviation, voltage transformer, automobile, nuclear, wind tunnel, locomotive, machine equipment.

Huge Capacity

Platform with 6 tons tare weight could load 400 tons cargo and move omnidirectionally

Cost Effective

The initial purchase and the follow-up maintenance cost is low, tracks or steel beams installation on the workshop ground is not necessary

High Flexibility

Omnidirectional move, solving the transport problem under space limitation

ECO Friendly

Compressed air as the main source of energy, environment pollutions such as noise, light, gas and dust are eliminated during operation

Omnidirectional Mobile

Move in Any Direction

Conventional Move
Conventional MoveConventional mobile platforms require several back and forth movement to be in place
Omni Move (Horizontal & Vertical)
Omni Move (Horizontal & Vertical)Omnidirectional mobile platform travels laterally and straightly to be in place
Omni Move (Diagonal)
Omni Move (Diagonal)Omnidirectional mobile platform travels diagonally to be in place
