Linear motors are synchronous motors: Current is applied to the coil to form an electromagnet. The coil then synchronizes itself to the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnets in the magnet ...

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 experiment ...

In the next few weeks, linear motors will face their ultimate litmus test. After years in the eye of a swirling technical storm, surrounded by doubters who say they're too expensive, supported by a ...

A wide variety of industries operate factories with large-format manufacturing lines, creating a need for long-travel motion axes and transfer robots. Some of these gantry and Cartesian robots can ...

V-738 XY-stages are motorized linear stages driven by linear motors and used in many precision motion and laser machining industrial applications. The XY stage shown above is driven by linear motors ...

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 ...

Rotary servo drive and its first cousins, linear motors, may be coming to packaging-or maybe not, depending on whom you talk to. A few packaging machine builders are looking at the super flexibility ...

Since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis at the latest, the pharmaceutical industry and laboratories have been under pressure to realize the highest possible levels of automation. Necessary here ...

Linear-motor driven plunger pumps are most efficient at transforming mechanical energy to hydraulic work in low-producing and highly deviated wells. Linear-motor driven plunger pumps (LMDPP) are most ...
