Abstract: A damping system can include a sensor disposed to measure an amplitude of a speed ripple of a drive shaft of a generator, and can include a feedforward circuit connected to the sensor and to the generator. The feedforward circuit can determine a phase angle formed by a load resistance and a load capacitance driven by the generator, calculate a voltage signal value based on the amplitude and the phase angle, and can adjust a DC link voltage provided by the generator and across the load resistance according to the voltage signal value.

Abstract: A power modulator includes a plurality of magnetic cores, at least one secondary that surrounds all of the magnetic cores, and at least one pulse generating module made up of an energy storage capacitor, switching means electronically controllable at turn-on and turn-off, a diode or an assembly of series-connected diodes connected in parallel with output conductors, and a set of single-turn or multi-turn primary windings, each set of primary windings surrounding a respective one of the plurality of magnetic cores, the sets of primary windings being connected in parallel to thereby provide a power modulator where each of the pulse generating modules drives all of the plurality of magnetic cores.

Abstract: A beam handling system that switches between two beam distribution systems (irradiation areas). When the first product has passed the beam, the second product starts to be irradiated in the second beam. This may be the same beam but directed in a different direction, or two separate beams, and the switching of direction is synchronized to occur as one product irradiation is completed and the second comes into position.

Abstract: A beam delivery system uses a set of electronically controlled magnets with a common magnetic yoke to steer the beam directly onto the products being irradiated with a very short distance between the magnets and the products.
