The life of currently-available centrifugal pumps is limited to no more than three days. As a magnetically suspended centrifugal pump (MSCP) contains no shaft or seal, it could be expected to have a longer life expectancy. The MSCP was evaluated in a chronic animal model using eight adult sheep. Left ventricular assist with the MSCP was instituted between the left atrium and the descending aorta. The flow rates ranged from 2.5 to 6.0 L/min. The duration of the experiments ranged from 14 to 60 days. No mechanical failure occurred. The plasma free hemoglobin levels remained within an acceptable range (3-19 mg/dL). No reduction in the counts of red blood cells or platelets was observed. Thrombus formation within the MSCP was recognized in one pump. The main reason for termination was thromboembolism derived from the circuits. Three types of regulation methods (constant rotational speed, constant motor current, and controlled motor current) were also investigated. Regulation by a constant motor current mode altered the pressure-flow (P-Q) characteristics, and thereby, a steadier pump flow was obtained compared with regulation in the constant rotational speed mode. Moreover, the controlled motor current mode can change the P-Q relationship. These results demonstrate that the MSCP is a promising device for long-term use.

This study proposes a Mahalanobis Distance Measurement (MDM) method to analyze current waveform for determining the motor’s quality types. The MDM method consists of three major stages: (i) the preprocessing stage which is for enlarging motor current waveforms’ amplitude and eliminating noises, and includes signal amplitude amplifier, filter circuit (eliminating noises), and analog-to-digital converter (ADC) parts, (ii) the qualitative features stage which is for qualitative feature selection on motor current waveforms, and (iii) the classification stage which is for determining motor quality types using the MDM method. It can recognize defective motors and their defective types in less than 0.5 second. In the experiment, the total classification accuracy (TCA) was approximately 99.03% in average. The proposed method has the advantages of good detection results, no complex mathematic computations, hi-speed, and hi-reliability.

The paper deals with the practical problem of the intelligent weighing and his real solution by means of unprecedented new progression. The project was concerned with handling and weighing goods with different weights of individual items. The basic part of the paper is a demonstration of automatic control of the intelligent process of weighing goods using mostly hardware and software resources by Phoenix Contact and standard DC motor platform. The basic idea of an intelligent weighing is based on the fact that the movement dynamics depends on the weight of the goods handled. In the process of movement control, detailed position and motor current values are measured to calculate the desired weight of the goods to be transported (handled).
