Test bech development for PoC power transmission magnetic gears

Magnetic gears are a state-of-the-art technology developed in the literature only since few past decades. As the world moves more and more toward sustainability, this wear-free technology can truly be revolutionary. Many prototypes have been developed, and many more will be. This thesis work aims to provide a simple method to build a research environment that satisfies all the necessary requirements to study mechanical energy transmission prototypes, in such a way to be safe, versatile, and affordable. In the first part of the paper, the working environment is presented. It is of paramount importance to first know the object to be studied. Once the working environment boundaries have been defined, the choice of sensors, acquisition system and the rationale behind these choices are presented. Second part, on the other hand, is devoted to the results obtained from the constructed and functioning study system. The work presented is the result of a heterogeneous team composed of members coming from multiple fields of engineering. Many aspects have been analyzed, the solutions found are the result of years of previous studies, and they have all been crucial to the success of the project.
