ABSTRACT:
A method and assembly for generating a hydrodynamic air bearing is described, wherein at least one rotor is rotated to force air through channels defined in a platen located adjacent to a linear belt and the forced air is directed to the linear belt. The method includes rotating at least one rotor with a motor such that the rotor forces air through channels defined in a platen, and the air is directed toward a linear belt. The assembly includes a housing in which a platen, rotors, and a bearing plate are located.
