Magnetic bearings use actively controlled electromagnets to suspend the load. Magnetic bearings are used in high speed and high temperature applications where standard bearings would fail or when ultra low friction is required.
Benefit
- Magnetic bearing applications have a high current loop bandwidth requirement; a tightly tuned servo drive current loop is important
ADVANCED Motion Controls' Capabilities
- ADVANCED Motion Controls has had good success with specially tuned AxCent™ drives in magnetic bearing applications
- The easy tuning procedure for DigiFlex® Performance™ drives make them an excellent choice for magnetic bearing applications
