Machine and robot builders recognize linear motor benefits, but some are reluctant to integrate the components into design because of incomplete understanding of the technology ...

Industrial linear motors offer design engineers the possibility of constructing machines in new ways. Fast, simple, and flexible, linear motors are easy to install and in many cases come with ...

In terms of bandwidth, linear motors provide high performance in applications involving rapid short-distance increments. This is particularly true for repetitive X-Y positioning systems, where the ...

Researchers at Philips Applied Technologies have developed an innovative technique that allows standard linear motors to simultaneously provide movement along two axes rather ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as a design ...

To run a stepper motor smoothly, it's necessary to apply linear acceleration. However, conventional algorithms to generate linear acceleration require complicated mathematics, which makes it difficult ...

Employing a proprietary manufacturing process and laminated iron-core design, the BLMFS5 series of "flat" linear motors claims to provide 25% more power, in an equivalent envelope, than competing ...

The Linear Labs HET motor could signal a breakthrough in electric motor design and performance. Linear Labs With the electric vehicle (EV) market heating up and due to become ever hotter, there ...

Whilst Aerotech has a wide range of linear motor driven positioning stages that typically include these components, the Company also supplies linear motors as components to many OEMs and machine ...

Faulhaber linear motors play a major role in the Automation of the pharmaceutical industry, laboratories and analysis.

Launching things with electromagnetism is pretty fun, with linear induction motors being a popular design that finds use from everywhere in hobby designs like [Tom Stanton]’s to the ...
