Calnetix Technologies, a manufacturer of high-speed permanent magnet motor generators, power electronics and magnetic bearings for a variety of applications and industries, passed the first shock and vibration test requirements for its motor and magnetic bearing technology, which are an integral part of a new generation of shipboard chillers for the U.S. Navy. Shock and vibration testing of the variable speed, two-stage, direct drive compressor was completed as part of the chiller prototype development program led by YORK Navy Systems, a Johnson Controls Company. “The testing is the first step in proving our capabilities in meeting the Navy’s aggressive performance, reliability and environmental goals,” said Vatche Artinian, Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer of Calnetix Technologies.
