Reliable bearings for FCEV air compressors
Improved dynamic rotor stability
Maximum load capacity for 3 segment design
Modular design, foil package can be optionally used without outer ring, to be assembled directly in customer housing
Cost-effective assembly
Design capable for high volumes
Competence regarding technical design configuration (Dedicated simulation tool developed)
High rotational speeds
Oil-free
Low friction
Low noise
Because the foil lifts off the shaft at relatively high speeds, friction-free and lubrication-free operation can be achieved. Due to the principle, however, this design prevents mechanical contact between the rotor and the stator in all operating states, i.e., even when the rotor is at a standstill.
