Rotor positioning bearings
SKF Rotor positioning bearings (fig. 1, table 1) are customized units with optimized mechanical integration between a magnetic impulse ring and a bearing in an application. The integrated units:
- allow the use of nearly all bearing types
- allow high speeds and temperatures
- generate strong magnetic impulses that are related to the rotor angular position
- can deliver the magnetic field in the axial or radial direction, on a through shaft or at the end of a shaft
- are very robust under severe operating conditions as a result of their high magnetic field strength
Applications
-
absolute angular position information for electric motor control in, for example:
- belt-driven starter generators
- traction motors
- e-superchargers and e-turbochargers
-
shaft speed detection or low-resolution angular position in, for example:
- crankshafts
- transmission shafts
