2. Magnetic bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_bearing

   A magnetic bearing. A magnetic bearing is a type of bearing that supports a load using magnetic levitation. Magnetic bearings support moving parts without physical contact. For instance, they are able to levitate a rotating shaft and permit relative motion with very low friction and no mechanical wear. Magnetic bearings support the highest ...

3. Magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation

   Diamagnetically levitated milli- and micro-robots offer precise control and minimal force noise, ensuring intrinsic stability and efficient zone control. Leveraging diamagnetic levitation, these robots experience reduced sliding friction and can achieve full levitation when paired with a diamagnetic layer, such as graphite, in the presence of a ...

4. Electromagnetic suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_suspension

   An active magnetic bearing (AMB) works on the principle of electromagnetic suspension and consists of an electromagnet assembly, a set of power amplifiers which supply current to the electromagnets, a controller, and gap sensors with associated electronics to provide the feedback required to control the position of the rotor within the gap ...

5. Spin-stabilized magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin-stabilized_magnetic...

   Spin-stabilized magnetic levitation is a phenomenon of magnetic levitation whereby a spinning magnet or array of magnets (typically as a top) is levitated via magnetic forces above another magnet or array of magnets, and stabilised by gyroscopic effect due to a spin rate that is neither too fast, nor too slow to allow for a necessary precession.

6. Levitation (physics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levitation_(physics)

   A magnetically levitated (maglev) train departing Shanghai Pudong International Airport on the first commercial high-speed maglev line in the world. Magnetic levitation is in development for use for transportation systems. For example, the Maglev includes trains that are levitated by a large number of magnets. Due to the lack of friction on the ...

7. Maglev - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maglev

   Transrapid 09 at the Emsland test facility in Lower Saxony, Germany A full trip on the Shanghai Transrapid maglev train Example of low-speed urban maglev system, Linimo. Maglev (derived from magnetic levitation) is a system of rail transport whose rolling stock is levitated by electromagnets rather than rolled on wheels, eliminating rolling resistance.

8. Electrodynamic suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodynamic_suspension

   Electrodynamic bearings (EDB) are a novel type of bearing that is a passive magnetic technology. EDBs do not require any control electronics to operate. They work by the electrical currents generated by motion causing a restoring force.

9. Mendocino motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendocino_motor

   The final 6th degree of freedom, the axial or thrust direction, is not levitated, but rather supported by a steel ball point of contact (low friction). An original Mendocino Motor is a light commutated motor. Two opposite solar panels are connected plus to opposite minus and minus to opposite plus. A coil is switched between these bridges.
