Calnetix - Model PowerFlux -Magnetic Bearing
Permanent magnet (PM) bias, Homopolar design, Combination of radial and axial bearing , High performance with low power losses and low cooling requirements, Suitable for high performance and precision applications, including defense, machine tools, power generation and less than 1 MW oil and gas compressors and expanders.
Active Magnetic Bearings (AMBs) have been in commercial rotating machinery for over 30 years, offering increased performance and extended machine lifespan due to frictionless operation and the lack of wearable parts. There has been an industry-wide increase in the production of magnetic bearing systems, which has led to overall cost reduction and more rapid market adoption. Some of the advantages of switching to magnetic bearings, include:
- No physical contact between rotating and stationary components
- No lubrication system required (environmentally-friendly)
- Fully functional in harsh environments
- Low power losses
- Dynamic testing, health-monitoring and data-logging
- And many more…
