IGBT in High Speed Drilling and Milling

When we talk about factories, places, vehicles, we sometimes don´t know that these manufacturing facilities are equipped with milling and drilling machines. In order to increase their performance it is necessary for them to employ high speed cutting technology, this makes them better  in every way possible in the cutting process, Milling spindles with extremely high rotational speed and great stiffness are required for high perfomance milling operations.

An active magnetic bearing must be used to meet these requirements for the previous milling needs said. The amplifier of the basic control circuit for an active magnetic bearing must provide sufficiently high voltage drop across the resistance of the magnet coil in order to get major stiffness and a  large duration while in the process of the machine.


To improve reliability and reduce costs, IGBT devices are used in the newly developed switching amplifier, this IGBT have been tested in a practical system of a  high speed milling spindle ( 35 KW/40,000rpm) consisting of an active magnetic bearing  for five axes.
