“…The number of the magnetic poles is analogous to the equivalent number of teeth of a gear, while allowing contactless torque and speed transmission. Due to this feature, the magnetic coupling can be referred as magnetic gear [84]. A motor connected to such magnet can transmit power to another PM across a physical barrier to another magnet.…”

“…The mechanical power transferred with this approach is used to drive one DoF of a needle injection robot. While this approach recalls the principle of operation of EM motors -with an external source generating a rotating magnetic field and an internal rotor following it -the LMA is more closely related to magnetic gears [22].…”

“…Abandoning the complicated magnetic worm gear and skew gear, people once again focused on analyzing and studying the simple parallel-axis MGs which were firstly proposed by Ikuta [15]. The parallel-axis MGs include two different magnetic coupling types: radial coupling and axial coupling.…”

Abstract-With the advent of magnetic gears, researchers have developed a new breed of permanent-magnet machines. These magnetic-geared permanent-magnet machines artfully incorporate the concept of magnetic gearing into the permanent-magnet machines, leading to achieve low-speed high-torque direct-drive operation. In this paper, a quantitative comparison of three viable magnetic-geared permanent-magnet machines is firstly performed, hence revealing their key features, merits, demerits and applications.Initially, the development of the magnetic gears, including the converted topologies and field-modulated topologies, is reviewed. Then, three viable magnetic-geared permanent-magnet machines are identified and discussed. Consequently, the corresponding performances are analyzed and quantitatively compared. The results and discussions form an important foundation for research in low-speed high-torque direct-drive systems.
