Beams & Lift Decks – For Moving Heavy Loads of Various Lengths”>Lift-deck beam sets are similar to air beams except that they have a lift-deck incorporated into the top of the beams.
Products
Transporters can be fitted with B-type Bearings
Hovair B-type air bearings are designed to lift loads vertically off their base, then move laterally across floor surfaces to their destination, then dropped into position.
Transporters can be fitted with A-type bearings
Hovair A-type air bearings are designed to move loads laterally across floor surfaces with “just enough” lift to cause the load to clear the floor and float smoothly.
Square Aluminum Module
The hub of our pneumatic powered load moving systems is the effective use of air bearings and caster modules as heavy machinery moving equipment.
See pictures of transporter in action here
Here is a fine example of a Hovair Systems transporter being used in a safety crash testing facility in the U.S.A. This is a 78″ x 84″ transporter with 8 x 16″ air-bearings on board.

The following progression illustrates just how effective a MatJack lifting bag can be when used in conjunction with Hovair Systems products.
Round Steel Module
The hub of our pneumatic powered load moving systems is the effective use of air bearings and caster modules as heavy machinery moving equipment.

What are Air Bag Lifting Tools Specifically Used For?
Overhead Gantry Crane Conversion
Here we see a regular overhead gantry crane that has been converted to a mobile crane simply by adding a set of four air bearings and modules to the feet. The benefits of this type of conversion are tremendous and take a previously permanently fixed crane and convert it into a floating model that can be used just about anywhere in
your location. Here you will see how easy it is to plug in your air supply and off you go. It really is that simple.
Again, very little operator effort is required to move a structure that would previously have presented problems.
More on stainless steel modules
VL-type stainless steel modules are designed to provide an efficient load moving system for loads and machines of lighter weights that do not need the tremendous lifting power of the A-type and B-type counterparts.
