1. Test report MGT magnetic face couplings and Parallel transmission
1.1 Introduction
This is the complete test report of the magnetic face couplings, and the magnetic
parallel transmission from MGT.
The couplings are categorized, see attachment. Tests are done in rejection and
attraction and in different configurations. Three coupling parts on both driven and driving
side was the limit. Air gaps of 1, 3 and 5mm were used with face couplings. Airgap of
1,5mm was used with the parallel transmissions. Since the couplings are not always
flat, the air gap could not be determined very secure. This should be taken into account
when interpreting the results. Every measurement was done three times.
assemble The face couplings were built-up out of 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 discs. More than 4
does not seem economical. The parallel transmissions were built-up out
of 1 against 1 disc, too 4 against 4 discs with single disc en double disc
assemble.
See attachments for a description of the test system. All test results are attached in
tables and graphs.
User pages were made and attached to simplify the choice of couplings.
1.2 Efficiency
The efficiency of the couplings is between 99 and 100%. The exact number for each
coupling is difficult to measure, since the efficiency is very high and the measurement
before and after the couplings are almost the same and in the same range as the
tolerance of the measuring instruments. Therefore the efficiency cannot be determined
more accurate.
1.3 Selection
See the user page to select the right coupling for the job. To select a coupling two out of
three variables must be known; speed, torque and power.
We advise to use 2/3 of the torque, as measured in the test, see the user page. So if 15
Nm is measured, 15*2/3 = 10 Nm is advised as nominal torque.
Selection on speed and power is possible on the user page.
Formula used: P = T *
P = Power in W
T = Torque in Nm

= Speed in rad/s
or
P=(T*n)/9550
P = Power in kW
T = Torque in Nm
n = Speed in rpm
If the coupling size and assembly is selected, one issue remains; the moment of inertia.
If the moment of inertia ( weight) of the driven side is too high, the driven item will not
speed up, the coupling will slip. Adjusting the acceleration or ramp-up of the driving
motor might solve the problem. However, it will not always be possible to influence the
ramp-up of the driving side. A bigger coupling with more torque, can also solve the
problem.
The power necessary to speed up the driven part, can be calculated. The power should
also be transmitted by the coupling. This is up to the user, sales engineer or designer to
determine.
Calculation of minimum acceleration time tmin:
tmin = (J*)/T or tmin = (J*n*2*)/(60*T)
tmin = min. acceleration time in seconds

J = moment of inertia in kgm
n= speed in rpm
= speed in rad/second
T = torque in Nm
With J=m*r
m = mass in kg
r = radius in m
At the maximum torque, the coupling is slipping. The remaining torque, slip torque, is
nil, i.e. less than 5% of max torque.

1.4 Magnetic conduct
Built-in as reject or as attraction is both possible. The highest torque is achieved with no
air gap in attraction. The couplings however, are not flat enough to realise this in most
cases. It is rather dangerous to work with these couplings. The magnets are strong and
it is painful to come between to coupling parts. It is advisable to use gloves, when
handling these couplings and think carefully how to mount the couplings.
The assembly with rejection is safer and easier. So we advise to use the couplings in
rejection. Most test are done in rejection.
1.5 Speed
The face-coupling tests are done at low speed (150 rpm), the parallel transmission tests
are done at 350 rpm. This does not influence the measured torque. The maximum
speed depends on the stability of the discs. This was not a part of the test requirements
as ordered. We have no information about the disc materials and the maximum
allowable speed of the disc assemblies.
1.6 Recommendation
We recommend to use air gaps as small as possible, e.g. 1 or 2mm. The coupling can
be used with bigger air gaps, but the loss of torque is significant. The couplings should
be produced as flat as possible.
The couplings can be assembled with 2 or more discs. More than 2-2 does not seem
economical. A bigger coupling might be better, in that case.
With the 130 transmission we have no really results because the disc with the
diameter 130mm have a too small diameter, and the magnets overlaps each other.
Thats why theres no torque results and graph.
We advise to use the couplings in rejection. This is easier in mounting and safer.
Mounting of these couplings should be done with care. Determine the mounting
sequence before assembly. Use gloves for protection.

1.8 Loadcell
The torque at the driver side, is measured with an arm and loadcell under the motor.
The loadcell is a 50 kg loadcell on an arm of 370 mm.
T=F*a
T = Torque in Nm
F = Force in N
a = arm in m
The accuracy of the loadcell is 0,5%. Type Velomat DZA-40A-50kg-1.20 serial number
VX34020592-L25A-0001
1.9 Torque sensor

The torque at the driven side is measured with a torque sensor. The accuracy of the
sensor is 0,5 %. Type KTR Dataflex 42/500, 500 Nm, serial number 42-26.
