Ferrofluidic inertia damper attached to motors shaft

PRINT
BACK



A stepper motor operated at its natural frequency may experience excessive settling time, vibration and acoustic noise. A Ferrofluidic damper relies on ferrofluid to absorb the motion energy by a shearing effect which produces a torque that opposes the unwanted oscillatory motion. A Ferrofluidic damper is hermetically sealed and has a non-magnetic housing which attaches to the motor shaft. Inside the housing is an inertial mass which levitates on Ferrotec's ferrofluid, thus eliminating the need for bearings to support the mass.A Ferrofluidic inertia damper is easily attached to the motor shaft and has no maintenance requirements. It can be custom tuned to your system for optimum results. Typical applications include X-Y-Z Plotters, Printers, Optical Scanners, Robotics and Milling Machines
