The Barden Corporation offers custom-designed, super-precision bearings for use in a wide variety of high-performance air handling systems Certain technologies demand custom-engineered, high-precision bearings rather than standard catalogue bearings
Air handling or air movement systems, for example, often require high-precision bearings, especially if the application is critical or requires a bearing solution that offers long life, high reliability and high speeds
Other factors that make high-precision custom bearings essential to many applications are high temperatures, high pressures, poor lubrication, low vibration levels or abnormal contamination levels Air handling systems are commonly found in every industry sector
Examples include axial and radial flow fans, compressors, turbomolecular pumps, dry pumps, emergency magnetic touchdown systems, turbochargers, air conditioning systems and cooling systems used on military aircraft for engine, avionics or infrared weapon systems
