## Abstract Driving a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) requires the rotor position information to control the motor torque, and this is generally detected by mechanical position sensors such as an encoder or a resolver. However, these sensors increase the machine size and the cost of the d

β¦ Synopsis
Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are applied to turbomolecular pumps (TMPs) and milling spindles. However, their application areas are limited because they are costlier and require larger space than conventional mechanical bearings. Omitting position sensors from AMBs is one of the promising methods to solve such problems. An additional merit is that rotors can be shortened to have a higher critical speed by removing sensor targets from the rotor. The sensorless operation of 4 M B s has already been achieved in several instruments developed for experimental study. In this research, the sensorless magnetic suspension method is applied to a TMP manufactured as an industrial product, and it is demonstrated that sensorless AMBs can suspend a highspeed rotor.

## Abstract A windingβcurrent interference model of selfβsensing magnetic bearings (AMBs) and an improvement technique of positionβsensing characteristics are proposed. In the selfβsensing AMB systems, the electromagnets work not only as actuators suspending the rotor but also as position sensors.
The non-linear response of a rotor supported by active magnetic bearings is investigated, and both primary and internal resonances are considered. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain four "rst order ordinary di!erential equations that describe the modulation of the amplitudes and phases
The non-linear dynamics of a rigid rotor levitated by active magnetic bearings is investigated. The vibrations in the horizontal and vertical directions are analyzed on the center manifold near the double-zero degenerate point by using normal-form method. The resulting normal forms in the horizontal
