Magnetic bearings use an electromagnet to provide non-contacting, friction-free motion in rotary applications. They are constructed of a rotating and a stationary part (rotor and stator, respectively) ...

The difference here is that rather than low-friction sapphire bearings, this motor uses zero-friction magnetic levitation using pyrolyzed graphite discs. The diamagnetic material hovers above a ...

A sharpened bicycle spoke serves as an axle, and clever magnetic bearings provide near-zero friction rotation. The stator coil comes from an old solenoid and is driven by a very simple two ...

Vertiv (VRT), a digital infrastructure solution, on Friday, announced the acquisition of certain assets and technologies from BiXin ...

The basic principle is this: to correct for declination, you want the map bearing and the magnetic bearing to be equivalent. If you are lucky enough to be on the line where the declination is 0°, both ...

Cages/retainers are almost always utilized to maintain uniform roller loading and spacing. Although fluid bearings and magnetic bearings are also manufactured for thrust applications, these areas are ...
