Levitation and guidance system for a superconductively levitated transport system — •Christoph Beyer, O. de Haas, P. Verges, G. Fuchs, and L. Schultz — IFW Dresden, Helmholtzstrasse 20, 01069 Dresden

The insight into technology and physics of the levitation and guidance system for the SupraTrans project, a prototype of a superconductively levitated transport system, will be delivered. The technology used herein bases on the flux pinning in melt-textured bulk YBCO that stabilizes the lateral and the vertical position of the vehicle above the magnetic track. A track made out of permanent magnets and soft magnetic steel-yokes acting as flux collectors has been constructed and its capability will be presented.

To establish a highly branched transportation network with short switching times a non-mechanic turnout switch operated by electromagnets has been constructed for a toy sized model and will complete the SupraTrans demonstrator.
