20. LEVITATION

21. • Video presentation

22. Maglev Technology
Maglev=Magnetic + Levitation

23. Magnetic Levitation
•is a method by which an object
is suspended with no support
other than magnetic fields.

24. 10/20/15

25. 10/20/15

26. 10/20/15

27.
Magnetic force is used to
counteract the effects of the
gravitational acceleration and
any other accelerations.

30. WHY?

31. Levitation = No contact =No friction = No power loss
= Increases efficiency
No contact = No friction = No wear
= Reduce maintenance costs

32. 10/20/15
The magnetic levitation technology can
be used as highly advanced and
efficient technology in the various
industrial applications.

33. APPLICATIONS:
•Clean energy

34. •Aerospace

35. 35
•Toys

36. •Weapons

37. •Transportation

38. MagLev Train
• uses noncontact magnetic levitation,
guidance and propulsion systems and
have no wheels, axles and transmission.

39. - Driving Without Wheels –Flying
Without Wings
- It doesn’t roll - It hovers .

40. Electricity and Electronics –Instead of
Mechanics

41. WHY
?!

42. •Rapid growth of populations
and the never ending demand
to increase the speed of travel
has always been a dilemma
for city planners.

43. • Current land transportation is slow
• Land speed is limited by friction
• Flying is expensive
• Air and land travel takes up a lot of
fuel.

-Early United States patents for a linear
motor propelled train were awarded to
German
inventor Alfred Zehden. The inventor was
awarded U.S. Patent 782,312 .

61. GUIDANCE
• functions according to the principle of
electromagnetic levitation.
• guidance magnets keep it laterally on
track.

63. PROPULSION
The synchronous longstator linear
motor of the maglev system is used
both for propulsion and
braking.

81. Guideway Manufacturing
- Modular Construction Method

82. fabrication of the pre -stressed concrete girder
The production of the concrete girder is based on
stationary formwork systems with automatically
adjustable formwork components. The different
production steps run according to a specified
schedule. The production process is based on the
following steps:
10/20/15

83. 10/20/15
- installation of the pre-stressing
reinforcement
- insertion of the inside formwork
- concreting, compacting and
smoothing of the girder

84. Drilling for mounting points , grinding
Cutting/Shaping , of the raw materials
by robots , CNC saw and five-axis CNC

94. On assembly lines, much of the
work is now done by robots rather
than humans. In the first stages of
vehicle body manufacturing,
robots weld the floor pan pieces
together and assist workers in
placing components onto the
chassis.
