[0002] The spindle is the core component of precision machining equipment, and its accuracy largely determines the machining accuracy. Currently, existing spindles mainly use ball bearings, which limit both axial and radial accuracy. Some manufacturers use small-hole throttling air bearings, which improves accuracy but limits spindle rigidity and makes it prone to air hammer. Currently, some manufacturers are developing and producing porous air-bearing spindles, using porous graphite as the air-permeable medium, which has achieved good results. However, porous graphite has poor hardness and is easily scratched, making it difficult to achieve good spindle rigidity.

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a high-precision air-float rotation device is proposed. Utility Model Content
