1) Electronics Industry
The development of large-scale integrated circuits requires that semiconductor silicon wafers be processed in ultra-vacuum, impurity-free sealed chambers, which places stringent requirements on the robots that transport silicon wafers: neither lubricating oil nor dust particles and gas can be generated. Therefore, the use of magnetic levitation motors to directly control the robot and its manipulator arm becomes an ideal choice. In addition, magnetic levitation will replace air cushion suspension chip welding in the process of integrated circuit plate making.
(2) Chemical Industry
In radioactive environments or high-temperature radiation environments with serious environmental pollution, such as using magnetic levitation bearings to drive speed-controlled centrifugal pumps for nuclear waste treatment, the problem of mechanical bearing wear and regular maintenance can be solved.
(3) Flexible Manufacturing, Processing and Conveying Systems
The suspension, holding and conveying of workpieces. For example, a high-speed, high-acceleration material transportation system composed of a distributed magnetic levitation linear induction motor group interconnected with a high-speed communication network, various power conversion and controllers. The oil and coal transportation system based on magnetic levitation technology can reduce the contact viscosity between crude oil and the oil pipeline, greatly improving the oil transportation speed. In mountainous areas, the magnetic levitation coal transportation system not only solves the problem of railway transportation, but is also suitable for climbing and all-weather work.
(4) Rail Transit
Superconducting magnetic levitation locomotives can achieve high-speed, large-capacity and smooth transportation, greatly improving transportation efficiency. High-temperature superconducting magnetic levitation locomotives are the trend of future train development.
