Based in Switzerland, Dr Alex Molyneaux has many years of experience and expertise in the design of high speed turbo-machinery incorporating permanent magnet motors or generators and supported using the latest advanced bearing technology, whether ceramic ball bearings, gas lubricated bearings or active magnetic bearings.

A particular speciality is the research, development, and the custom engineering and production of self-acting gas bearings, rotating at speeds of up to 500,000 rpm, which are used in small turbo compressor and expander applications.
