Abstract

The aim of the invention is to better compensate for specifiable forces on a magnetic mounting. This is achieved by a magnetic mounting device with a first magnet device (10), which is designed in an annular manner and which has a central axis, for retaining a shaft on the central axis in a rotatable manner by means of magnetic forces. The magnetic mounting device additionally has a second magnet device (12), which is independent of the first magnet device (10), for compensating for a specifiable force acting on the shaft. In this manner, the magnetic mounting device can compensate for the gravitational force or forces based on imbalances.
