Engineers at EPFL in Switzerland have built a flexible motor that looks like a ...

A line of Nippon Pulse’s linear shaft motors that features analog Hall effect sensors to enable closed-loop positioning without a linear encoder. Linear motors can be described as uncurled 3-phase ...

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 ...

A majority of automated systems using linearmotors today rely on a rotary servo motor coupled to a ball screw,belt-drive, rack-and-pinion, or even a cam-follower mechanism which convert therotary ...

Certain approaches simplify the sizing, integration, and protecting of tubular linear motors destined for thermally constrained applications — and they don’t necessarily rely on the use of large and ...
