Hovair Air Film Technology

Hovair Systems’ air film technology allows you to make light work of moving large, heavy and awkward loads in any direction. Objects of almost any size or weight can be moved in any direction with ease and precision. There are few moving parts, ensuring that reliability and ease of maintenance is built in. Air film technology is the application of compressed air to virtually eliminate friction, allowing very large loads to be moved with relatively little effort.

Applications
