    摘要: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a pick & place system that uses a magnetic core for both magnetic coupling with an assembly component and heating of the assembly component. The magnetic core has a component engagement surface configured to magnetically and thermally engage the component. A controller is configured to provide both AC current and DC current to an inductive coil wound about the magnetic core. DC current provided to the inductive coil induces a magnetic field within the magnetic core, thereby magnetically attracting the component when engaged with the component engagement surface. AC current provided to the magnetic core inductively heats the magnetic core, thereby heating the component when engaged with the component engagement surface.

    摘要: A linear electrical machine comprising a frame with a level reference plane and an array of electromagnets, connected to the frame to form a drive plane at a predetermined height relative to the reference plane. The array of electromagnets being arranged so that a series of electromagnets of the array of electromagnets define at least one drive line within the drive plane, and each of the electromagnets being coupled to an alternating current power source energizing each electromagnet. At least one reaction platen of paramagnetic, diamagnetic, or non-magnetic conductive material disposed to cooperate with the electromagnets of the array of electromagnets so that excitation of the electromagnets with alternating current generates levitation and propulsion forces against the reaction platen that controllably levitate and propel the reaction platen along at least one drive line, in a controlled attitude relative to the drive plane.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a power generation machine or device, comprising permanent magnets, a three-phase system, bifilar coils and a magnet arrangement disposed axially to the generator rotor; and comprising a system embedded by magnetic pulse control software for the moment of magnetic collapse or generation of electric power peaks or valleys, whereby a set of sensors detect the precise angular moment in which the coils have stored the maximum magnetic energy and then trigger their magnetic collapse or generation of electric power peaks or valleys by a switching process controlled by the signals coming from said sensors. All these elements are arranged in the rotor and circumferential stator, which generates electrical energy when moving.
