Magnetic Bearings
(OP)
I am looking for information on magnetic bearings, like where to get or applications in industry. I am doing R&D work on on rotating disc, around 100mm dia. and need ultra low friction bearings to run at speeds +1000 RPM.
Permanent or electric, active or passive bearings.
Any advice welcome

RE: Magnetic Bearings
There are magnetic bearings that work with self-induced currents and they are even worse. The energy needed to keep the bearing centered is taken from the shaft rotation.
Is the disk vertical or horizontal? That may influence your choice.
