Since now 25 years, AFROSPATIALE works on the magnetic bearing technology and has been awarded contracts with many customers in order to develop equipment for flight and ground applications. Two generations of magnetic bearing reaction wheels are already in flight, onboard observation satellites : - firstly on SPOT and ERS with 15 wheels in flight on 5 satellites, - secondly on HELIOS spacecraft with 3 wheels in orbit. Total cumulated flight time is now more than 88 years without any problem. AEROSPATIALE Magnetic Bearing is based on the use of permanent magnets and on the control of the rotor around a zero force equilibrium point The present paper recalls the cronology of magnetic Bearing history at AEROSPATIALE, explains the inventive principle of the magnetic bearing this technology matures through other competitive products.
