Active magnetic bearings are levitating the rotational part of the machine, totally eliminating friction. No lubricant is needed, and efficiency is higher.
Our mission
Our passion is to push energy efficiency to the maximum level and promote oil-free solutions in various industries. We provide design and prototyping of the high-speed electrical drivetrains supported by frictionless magnetic bearings. In a serial production, we provide active magnetic bearing systems. SpinDrive’s solution lowers the customer’s lifecycle costs by 35%.
Industry challenges
Around 40% of the electricity worldwide is consumed by rotating electrical machines. However, most of the electrical machines are not working at the optimum point from a process efficiency perspective. Original Equipment Manufacturers require reliable, energy efficient and completely containment-free prime movers. However, the drivetrain industry is lacking innovation. The typical problems are the absence of the machine operational data, the need for a gearbox and lubrication. It leads to frequent equipment breakdowns and high maintenance costs. SpinDrive solution addresses all these challenges.
