This generates a current - that is pointing out of the picture - and this will result in a magnetic field that is oriented opposite to the one from the magnet. The electrically conducting material is thus acting as a magnetic mirror.</p></td> </tr> <p> </p> </table> </div> <p> </p> <p class="style28"><strong>Solutions for: </strong></p> <p class="style28"><strong>Energy Storage, Energy Quality,</strong></p> <p class="style28"><strong>Micro Turbines, Motors, Spindles, Products and Services </strong></p> <p align="center"> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/FiCarFrontHex.jpg" alt="KERS, Kinetic Energy Recovery System for Automotive in F1 and Commercial Cars" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/WindHex.jpg" alt="Wind Power" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/PowerGridHex.jpg" alt="Power Grid, Energy Quality" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/LabHex.jpg" alt="Medicine, Electronic Industry, Process Industry" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/SpaceEarthHex.jpg" alt="Space applications" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/FlywheelHex.jpg" alt="Flywheel, KERS, Kinetic Energy Recovery System" width="53" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/SolarpowerHex.jpg" alt="Solar Power, Clean Tech and Envirnomental Friendly, Stabilizing Energy" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /> <img src="/Img/Hexagon/VacuumHex.jpg" alt="Vacuum, Tooling Compressors and Micro CHP" width="50" height="50" class="thumbnail" /></p> <p class="style19">Clean - Silent - Fast - Reliable -Cost Effective </p> <p><span class="style26">©Magnetal 2012</span></p> <p><span class="style26">MAGNETAL AB, 103 96 Stockholm, SWEDEN, Phone: +46 (0)18 418 60 60</span></p> </div> <div id="rightcolumn"> <h1 class="style21">/Technology/.</h1> <p align="center"><img src="header_banner.jpg" alt="Magnetal - Environmental Focus" width="160" height="30" /></p> <h6 class="style21"> </h6> <h6 class="style21"><u><em>Products</em></u></h6> <div align="center"> <table width="80%" border="0" cellspacing="" cellpadding="10"> <tr> <td height="200"><div class="style25" align="justify"> <p><em>Magnetal Homopolar Magnetic Bearings come in three different designs for tailored performance.</em></p> </div> <div align="justify"> <p><img src="Img/3Bearings.jpg" alt="Magnetal Passive Magnetic Product Line of Homopolar Electrodynamic Bearings" width="150" height="76" align="middle" /><br /> </p> </div> <p align="justify"><em><a href="ProductsPMB.html" class="style26">Read more....</a></em></p> <p align="justify"> </p> <p align="center"><a href="Dokument/Magnetal_Drill_Down.pdf" target="_blank"><img src="Magnetal Technology_Presentation_Page_01.jpg" alt="Magnetal Detailed Technology Presentation" width="140" height="110" class="thumbnail"/></a> </p> <p align="center" class="style3"><a href="Magnetal_Drill_Down.pdf" target="_blank" class="style26">Magnetal Detailed <br /> Technology Presentation </a></span></p> <p align="justify"> </p> <p align="justify"><em>View Magnetal technology presentation on YouTube</em></p> <p align="center"><em><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R4QQmCY4JU" title="Magnetal Electrodynamic Bearing Technology - An introduction on YouTube" target="_blank" class="style26"><img src="Img/Bakgrunder/icon-youtube.png" alt="Magnetal on YouTube" width="50" height="50"/></a></em></p><br> </td> </tr> </table> <p> </p> </div> <table width="90%" border="0" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="10"> <tr> <td><img src="Img/office_people.jpg" alt="Magnetal personnel" width="150" height="100" /></td> </tr> </table> <h2 class="style4"> </h2> <h2 align="center" class="style4"><span class="style3"><a href="mailto:info@magnetal.se">Contact</a></span></span></h2> <h2 align="justify" class="style4"> </h2> <h2 align="justify" class="style4">Technology Introduction for Passive Magnetic Bearings, Invented by Dr Torbjörn Lemble</h2> <h3 align="justify" class="style4">Solutions for energy efficient- applications</h3> <h4 align="justify" class="style4">Technology Areas</h4> <h4 align="justify" class="style3"><span class="style4">Kinetic Energy Recovery System, KERS, Flywheel, Energy, Power Grid, Frequency Stabilization, Automotive, Air and Space, Compressors, Vacuum, Vacuum, Oil and Gas, Process Industry, Wind Energy, Solar Energy, Frequency Stabilization, Energy Quality, Bearings, Lager, Clean tech, Green technolog, Electric cars</span>,</h4> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div> <div align="right">   </div> <div id="footer"> <div align="left" class="chromestyle"> <p align="center"> </p> </div> </div>  </div>  </div> <a href="patents.html" target="_blank"><img src="Img/Bakgrunder/bg-tile.gif" alt="Patents" width="1" height="2" align="right" class="thumbnailNB" /></a> <script type="text/javascript"> var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
