When compared to the regular traditional magnetic coupling, the direct magnetic drive has swiped the market due to its features and advantages. The regular spindle technologies when it comes to the wear and usage dynamics stand less efficient in comparison to the modern magnetic drive. The understanding of various important parameters is a must to benefit your application. The direct magnetic drive also termed a sophisticated drive allows the quick change of flow and pressure in the internal gear pump technology.
What is a Direct magnetic drive?
Magnetic drives involve the best features like:
- Trusted high precision
- Advanced and developed dynamics
- Torque, i.e., the non-contact force or the driving force is high
- Involves greater strokes
- High operation cycles never affect the lifecycle and durability of the drive
- Solely customised designing of the featured characteristics
Voice coilers, linear or torque motors use such drives. The direct magnetic drives the driving force is directly transferred to the load required to be displaced. The modern electromagnetic drives have a coil where a magnetic field is formed to allow the flow of current through the coil on the mounted magnets.
What is magnetic coupling?
These types of couplings work with a non-contact force in the form of torque. Usually, used for transmitting torque force through the air these form the bases of magnetic pumps and mixers owning seal-less applications. These prevent the loss of corrosion, toxicity, and flammable liquids from escaping in the environment.
A complete absence of contacting parts in such pumps allows the transmission of torque by parallel and angular alignment.
Basically, such magnetic couplings work on the principle of transferring the driving force from the previous shaft to the next one. The principle on which this work is the simple principle of opposite poles attract in a magnet. (Torque can be defined as the rotating force).
Basic points of difference
- The direct magnetic drives as compared to the traditional magnetic coupling and spindle-based technologies are less exposed to wear and tear as these work on non-contact forces.
- The automation and final handling solutions benefit different areas of technology and dynamics.
- The durability and lifecycle of the metering pumps and machinery are enhanced even after prolonged high operation cycles of the motors and pumps.
- The challenge of high-performance motion and better efficiency is overruled with the invention and usage of direct magnetic drives.
- Also, these magnetic drives use a minimum of mechanical parts thus reducing the wear and tear of the same as compared to the traditional magnetic coupling.
- The trending and rising demand for compact sizes and lighter and energy-efficient machinery have been met by the use of direct magnetic drives in an effective way as compared to the traditional magnetic coupling. The sizes have been compacted and the use of lighter components make the same cost-effective.
- The magnetic direct drive offers high precision of motion transfers, assuring better reliability and accuracy of the performance.
Thus, the direct magnetic drives are better than the traditional magnetic couplings in respect to maintenance and repairs as well as cost-effectiveness. In simple words, these are electromagnetic direct drives, and the power of the same can be reduced and raised as per the need.
