Smaller, streamlined electronics make lubricant-free, low-friction magnetic bearings feasible for more rotating machines. • Magnetic bearings support rotating shafts in five axes without solid or ...

Magnetic bearings and electrodynamic systems represent a rapidly evolving field in which contactless support of rotating components is achieved through the elegant interplay of magnetic forces and ...

More-powerful controllers and better software lead to broader applications for magnetic bearings. Magnetic-bearings, which support shafts with magnetic levitation rather than mechanical contact, have ...

TRAINS that float on air may be the most famous objects borne by magnetic fields. But magnetic forces can also support other, less visible objects: the spinning shafts, for example, hidden at the ...

Calnetix Technologies LLC has announced the commercial availability of its latest technology development, the Insight™ 3600 magnetic bearing controller. These state-of-the-art, compact, panel-mounted ...

Can you run an electric motor for two years on a single lithium coin cell? [IamWe] figured out how to do it, and even though his donut motor doesn’t look like any motor we’ve ever seen before, it’s a ...
