Magnetic bearings for aerospace applications use active magnetic levitation (AMB) technology to suspend rotating shafts contactlessly via electromagnets, position sensors, and digital control systems, eliminating mechanical wear and lubrication requirements; they are employed in high-speed turbomachinery, reaction wheels, and CMGs, with materials including laminated electrical steel stators and high-permeability rotor sleeves.
