4.7 Air-permeable floors
If the surface is not airtight, so much air can escape through the floor that the resulting pressure
is not enough to raise the load. Alternatively, the volume of air will be too small to form a film of air. 4
A conventional (unsealed) concrete floor is porous and allows some air to seep through. Even
coated surfaces are not always totally airtight, i.e. they may have cracks, gaps, holes or joints.
Such non-airtight points can easily be patched, covered with adhesive tape or a thin sheet of metal
(see Fig. 4.8 - 1 and 5.1 - 1). 4
4.8 One-off transportation on an unsuitable surface
If a machine only has to be moved once, for example, the air cushion can be used on practically
any surface, provided that the route is covered with sheets of metal, etc. (see also Fig. 5.1 - 1).4

4.9 Cleanliness
For the air cushion module to work perfectly over long periods, the floor surface must be clean.
Wear can be almost totally eliminated by preparing the floor well. 4
Small, light objects, such as fine sand, sawdust, cigarette ends, etc, are blown away by the flow
of air. Stuck-on dirt, such as spots of ink or oil, tire dust from fork-lift trucks, etc, reduce the surface
quality and can cause the rubber bellows to wear, which in turn increases air consumption. 4
CAUTION 4
: Large, sharp objects, such as nails, screws or embedded steel swarf can damage the air
cushion bellows.
