A rotary atomizer comprises an electric motor having a stator and a rotor, a vertical shaft, one or more porous gas bearings configured to provide frictionless radial and axial support to the shaft, and a rotating disc installed at a lower end of the shaft, said rotating disc configured to spray liquid into the form of fine particles. A gap detection system monitors a distance between the porous gas bearings and the vertical shaft. Bushings on the motor housing help to maintain precise alignment of the rotor during installation and maintenance.
B05B 3/00 - Spraying or sprinkling apparatus with moving outlet elements or moving deflecting elements
B01D 1/18 - Evaporating by spraying to obtain dry solids
B05B 3/10 - Spraying or sprinkling apparatus with moving outlet elements or moving deflecting elements with rotating elements discharging over substantially the whole periphery of the rotating member
F16C 17/10 - Sliding-contact bearings for exclusively rotary movement for both radial and axial load
F26B 3/12 - Drying solid materials or objects by processes involving the application of heat by convection, i.e. heat being conveyed from a heat source to the materials or objects to be dried by a gas or vapour, e.g. air the gas or vapour carrying the materials or objects to be dried with it in the form of a spray

Rotary atomizer having electro-magnetic bearings and a permanent magnet rotar
An improved rotary disc atomizer for use in, for example, spray dryers or congealers is disclosed. The rotary disc may be directly mounted to the shaft of a high-speed electrical motor. The high-speed electrical motor comprises a permanent magnet rotor and electro-magnetic bearings. The electro-magnetic bearings may be supported by one or more upper/lower bearing housings and used to enable frictionless support of the shaft/rotor and rotary disc. The atomizer system may further comprise a gas distributor enabled to dynamically adjust the velocity at which the gas leaves the radial vanes and meets with the atomized droplets.
