The advantages to modern machinery are obvious: no mechanical wear, no lubrication, potential for high rotor speed, accuracy, and high dynamic performance, new constructional solutions to a classical problem in machine dynamics. The realization of such bearings is in rapid progress. Examples for application areas are turbomachinery, centrifuges, vacuum techniques, machine tool spindles, chemical industry, medical devices, robotics, high speed drives, spacecraft equipment, con tactless actuators, vibration isolation. The Symposium is demonstrating the current state of the art in this developing field of mechatronics, showing actual research efforts, reporting on applications in the various areas, and discussing open questions. The main purpose of the Symposium has been to establish a common information basis for people working on magnetic bearings. It will point to promising areas, and it will help to facilitate decisions on research and development projects, and on investments for applications. The Advisory Committee for the Symposium consisted of Prof. P.E. Allaire, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA H. Habermann, Societe de Mecanique Magnetique, Vernon, France Prof. T. Higuchi, University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan Prof. R. Holmes, University of Southampton, Southampton, UK Prof. G. Schweitzer, ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland, (chairman) The Symposium has been drawing considerable interest from research and from industry. Only 36 papers of a much larger number of submitted contributions could be considered for presentation. The 180 participants came from 15 countries with an especially large delegation from Japan. This Symposium was the first of its kind. There are plans to have the Second Symposium in Japan in July 1990, hosted by the University of Tokyo, and an invitation for the Third Symposium comes from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA. VI For the proceedings the original manuscripts submitted by the authors are reproduced. Therefore varying quality of the papers can be observed in this book. Only limited editing has been done as to preserve the individual flavor of each contribution. The contributed papers reflect the scientific, industrial and commercial interests of the authors. The lectures were devoted to the following main topics: Applications in Space, Applications in Physics, Applications in Robotics, Special Bearings, Stabilization of Rotor Motion, Vibration Control of Flexible Rotors, Industrial Applications, Identification of Bearing and Rotor Parameters, Unbalance and Disturbance Control, Digital Control, Signal Processors and Applications Some of the papers are related to more than one of these main topics, but in order to assist the reader we have structured this volume according to the main topics, thus maintaining the structure of the Symposium. The lectures were extensively discussed, and it is expected that the Symposium will have a stimulating effect on further research in this challenging and promising field of mechatronics. The discussions in the audience and statements of the members of the Advisory Committee indicate that there are necessary and promising directions where future efforts will have to go: - further industrial applications - power electronics - digital control, at least for high level tasks (diagnostics, adaptive control, operational aspects) - safety design and retainer bearings to improve customer acceptance - permanent magnets for low energy or low price solutions The Symposium was sponsored and financially supported by Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule ZUrich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich) Schweizerische Gesellschaft fUr Mikrotechnik (Swiss Society of Microtechniques) European Research Office of the US Army This help is gratefully acknowledged. VII The Local Organizing Committee consisted of Mrs. G. Junker, Prof. J. Hugel, Prof. G. Schweitzer (chairman), Dr. A. Traxler A main contribution to the success of the Symposium is due to the help and excellent work of the staff of the Institute of Mechanics of the ETH. The editorial work of the Proceedings was supported by the Institute of Mechanics of the ETHZ. Thanks to the Springer-Verlag are due for an agreeable and efficient cooperation. Zurich, July 1988 G.
