Advances in Maglev Bearing Technology for ORC Applications

CIGU’s R&D team has published new research outcomes detailing next-generation active magnetic bearing control algorithms that further reduce rotor vibration and extend operational lifespan in ORC turbo expander applications. The improvements yield a measurable increase in isentropic efficiency, particularly in partial-load conditions common in industrial waste heat recovery scenarios.

These advances reinforce CIGU’s position as a global leader in maglev turbomachinery technology with over 100 patents in the field.
