Career Highlights

  • Airex engineers developed and manufactured linear actuators to optimize copper form-and-fill factors for cryogenic coolers.
  • The linear motion technology developed by our in-house engineers allows for extreme accuracy and maintaining the motor’s temperature, which is important in testing phases where temperature fluctuation or cross coupling could negatively impact results.

Benefit from Airex Expertise

When evaluating the performance of a linear motor, some may assume “bigger, better, faster” is always the answer, but top performance often hinges on a different aspect. The most demanding requirement for linear motor performance is maintaining a perfectly stable position without generating heat. This is crucial in scientific applications such as sample reading and development, where using a motor to move, settle, and process microscopic images relies on temperature stability. Even the slightest fluctuation can compromise image quality in microscopy. Airex’s expertise in electromechanical motors is pivotal to advancing scientific accuracy and reliability.
