APPLICATIONS FOR THE TECHNOLOGY

 

 

Potential uses for the MTSC magnetic support technology include situations where materials or persons need to be transported or positioned, and where some of the following exist:

  • Loads are such that light duty wheels will not suffice
  • Duty cycles characterized by frequent or repetitive use
  • High reliability is necessary, and downtime for maintenance or repair must be minimized
  • Quiet, energy efficient operation is desired
  • Environment, geography or climate make it difficult to use conventional roads or railways
  • Temporary usage, requiring easily assembled guideways with possibility of subsequent removal and relocation

Applications in these categories include:

  • Warehouse and factory materials handling
  • Construction site access and excavation spoils removal
  • Surface and subsurface mining
  • Cargo container movement in ports and harbors and other cargo marshalling areas
  • Recreational, entertainment and amusement park sites
  • Logging and forest management
  • Access for personnel and equipment to remote or difficult areas
  • Transit systems
  • Alternative to moving walkways and conveyor belts
  • Military transport of materiel and personnel
  • Emergency access in disaster areas
