Abstract

This paper summarises a research on a large load bearing magnetic spring concept, which has application to the development of a non-contact vibration isolation table. Also, the paper outlines the design of a magnetic spring with a single degree of instability that is suitable for bearing large loads. Analytical methods have been used to verify the stability and demonstrate the load bearing ability of the spring. Testing of the proposed magnetic spring in a physical system is currently in progress.
