A new electromagnetically actuated valve-gate cylinder reportedly delivers 110 times more accurate position control than hydraulic or pneumatic operation.
Traditional flywheels can lose energy and break down through the friction created by the spinning wheel, but the flywheels developed by Pentadyne minimize that problem two ways: they are made of light-weight carbon fiber and are electromagnetically suspended, meaning they don't touch anything as they spin at 54,000 revolutions per minute (several times faster than a Formula 1 race car engine).
But technological hurdles may slow that plan, because to achieve a thinner antenna the complex belt and gear system that now positions the tracking panels must be replaced by a solid-state setup that tracks satellite signals electromagnetically.
