The bench is designed for testing dampers performance at extreme temperatures between -200ºC and 300ºC and at a frequency range of 0 to 50 Hz. Vibration isolation is a common denominator issue in areas such as aerospace, defence, automotive, industry or energy. Unfortunately for engine manufacturers, currently available dampers are incapable of handling temperatures higher than 100ºC….
ESA visits MAG SOAR facilities to monitor the recent advances of the project Levisolator is creating a completely new support system based on magnetic bearings technology that would eventually be installed on the cryostat of ESA ATHENA mission, an advanced X-ray telescoped designed to address the Cosmic Vision gas structures. MAG SOAR leads a consortium with Universidad de Alcalá and the Universidade de Lisboa which…
Levitating mechanical supports may seem a science fiction or futuristic reality. Nevertheless, magnetic contactless systems are already available and capable of dealing with most of the problems bound to traditional mechanic devices. MAG SOAR products and services explore all the possibilities offered by this clear breaktrough in nowadays technology. NO WEAR The substitution of geared teeth for magnets…
