Hello all,
I have an application where I need to apply a "pure" axial force on a shaft, that means without any sort of reaction moments that may appear on the shaft. So I was thinking to use a electromagnet and a permanent magnet. As shown in the picture, the permanent magnet (2) is rotating, while the electromagnet (1) is stationary. I know there is no such thing like "pure" axial force in practical applications, so my questions are:
-The reaction moment is small enough to be ignored?
-If it can't be ignored, can it be masured?
