Abstract

This paper describes the implementation of magnetic bearings and their active control system. The working principle of the special combined axial and radial magnetic bearings and their implementation is explained. The overall laboratory system consists of two magnetic bearings with their housings, the suspended shaft and control system with sensors and power electronics. Sensor electronics are used to measure the position of the shaft within a bearing and to determine the appropriate bearing current with outer position control loops and nested current control loops. The motor control board featuring the TMS320F28335 DSP and LDC1000 proximity sensors is used for control and power electronics. In order to implement the control system the X2C tool is used. This is an open source model based development and code generation tool embedded in the Scilab/Xcos environment. The sensor data acquisition time is optimized to increase the speed of the control system.
