The two final design steps go hand-in-hand to complete the linear motor system design: The fourth step is to select a linear motion bearing system, and the fifth is to design the support members.

A linear motor is like a rotary motor that has been unwrapped. The motor coils make up the forcer. Depending on the design, one or two rows of magnets comprise the magnet track.

Electric motors are a hidden opportunity for sustainability, and circular design is starting to show real promise.

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 … ...

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 electroma… ...

With its Hunstable Electric Turbine, Linear Labs promises three times the torque, twice the power and a 10% increase in range in an electric vehicle over a typical permanent magnet motor.

If the name “Hunstable” sounds familiar, it’s because it belongs to Brad Hunstable, Founder and CEO of Linear Labs.Brad didn’t design the motor with his name on it - his father did ...

The P3 is a robust, linear motor-driven stage featuring speeds up to 5m/s at 10g, and high acceleration capacity. The linear motor coil is integrated into the top assembly plate, allowing optimized ...

He said the motor is a timely step toward green energy. “Last time I checked, the world isn’t getting any colder,” he said. He said he wants Linear Labs to help turn Dallas-Fort Worth into a ...

In the unique ServoTube design, the magnetic forces are balanced, and motion is smooth and cogging-free as opposed to flat-bed linear motors. The innovative ServoTube forcer coils optimize use of the ...

It is now looking to fix things by equipping all three Galaxy S22 models with an X-axis linear motor. Of course, a lot depends on software optimizations as well. Perhaps the positioning of the ...

Proportional integral derivative (PID) control is a common method used to regulate the dynamic behavior of a system. Examples are found in many industrial devices, where it’s employed for ...
