UNIQUE PROPERTIES

SilentWheel™ - Combines the advantages of our proven ColorWheel™ with newly developed air bearing motor technology for sequential color management in multimedia projection systems such as DLPR.

Life expectancy far beyond existing technologies due to non-contact bearing structures
Lowest sound levels for applications that require minimal sound
Lowest vibration for quality and durability
High flexibility for customization

WhisperWheel™ - The motor technology of our SilentWheel™, designed for high-end projector display applications which require extremely quiet/smooth/longtime continuous stable running.

Lowest sound levels
Lowest vibration by dual plane balancing
Variety of configurations for broad range of applications

RobustWheel™ - Newly developed Hall sensor motor technology. Designed to solve the problem of photo sensors reacting to a dusty environment and shutting down the timing index sytem.

Electromagnetic sensors not affected by dust
Lower system cost by removing original IR Time Index Sensorand building sensor within the color wheel
High reliability

Materion ColorWheels™ offer a high degree of flexibility that allows specially configured designs that can be customized for: diameter, number of filter segments, motor speed, timing index mark, expert spectral tuning, and high transmission.
