Parallel Path Magnetic
Technology vs.
Conventional Magnetic
Circuit & Force Comparisons:
|
|
The
same magnetic test apparatus, with magnets removed, is used
for the conventional comparison tests. The same electrical
input is used in these examples as the electrical input
required to move all of one of the permanent magnet's flux to
the opposite armature with the magnets installed (Parallel
Path Magnetic Technology). The amount of this electrical input
is defined as 1 unit. All tests
performed use 1 unit of electrical input. |

The armatures on
the left is applied without an air gap. The armature on the
right has an air gap. Force can only be exerted on the
armature with the air gap. |

Both Armatures
have air gaps. This reduces the reluctance of the circuit and
divides the force between the two armatures. |
