“…The effect of centrifuging at high rotational speeds and the subsequent sealing problems associated with it can be mitigated by the proposed model. Extraordinary features of the direct shear mode like simplicity, fast response, simple interface between electrical power input and mechanical power output using magnetic fields, and controllability are features that make MRF technology suitable for many applications such as dampers, brakes, clutches and polishing devices [56][57][58][59].…”

“…The metal particles are usually made of carbonyl iron, or powder iron, or iron/ cobalt alloys to achieve a high magnetic saturation. The amount of metal powder in MRF can be up to 50% by volume [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. The particle size is in the μ−meter range and varies depending on the manufacturing processes.…”

Abstract:Magneto-Rheological Fluid (MRF) technology is an old "newcomers" coming to the market at high speed. Various industries including the automotive industry are full of potential MRF applications. Magneto-Rheological Fluid technology has been successfully employed already in various low and high volume applications. A structure based on MRF might be the next generation in design for products where power density, accuracy and dynamic performance are the key features.Additionally, for products where is a need to control fluid motion by varying the viscosity, a structure based on MRF might be an improvement in functionality and costs. Two aspects of this technology, direct shear mode (used in brakes and clutches) and valve mode (used in dampers) have been studied thoroughly and several applications are already present on the market. Excellent features like fast response, simple interface between electrical power input and mechanical power output, and precise controllability make MRF technology attractive for many applications. This paper presents the state of the art of an actuator with a control arrangement based on MRF technology. The study shows that excellent features like fast response, simple interface between electrical power input and the mechanical power output, and controllability make MRF the next technology of choice for many applications.

“…The shear transmission of MRF is the use of MRF by the applied magnetic field control of the shear yield stress to provide transfer torque. Huang et al analyzed of the transmission mechanism of MRF in the brake, established of a torque equation for cylindrical MRF brake, proposed the calculation method of MRF effective thickness in the brake [11]. Doruk Senkal et al designed the magnetic circuit of MRF brake into serpentine, made the same size of the brake torque increase greatly [12].…”
