A transverse flux, PM-exited linear motor (TFM-LM) with inner mover was designed and built. Its output power density is higher and its weight is lower than those of the conventional PM exited linear synchronous motors (PM LSM). To obtain the maximum thrust force under the given volume, the thrust force density with respect to the ratio of the slot width and the length of pole pitch is analyzed by the 3-dimension finite element method (FEM). Finally, calculated static thrust forces was compared with the experimental values. The calculated and measured performance of the transverse flux, PM-exited linear motor with inner mover revealed great potential for system improvements by reducing the mass of the linear motor. For examples, when this motor was applied to a ropeless elevator, it was possible to increase the power density by more than 400% over the conventional PM-LSM. The results of this study recommend this type of motor for the ropeless elevator or gearless direct linear driving system.

The stationary discontinuous armatures that are used in permanent magnet linear synchronous motors (PM-LSMs) have been proposed as a driving source for transportation systems. However, the stationary discontinuous armature PM-LSM contains the outlet edges which always exist as a result of the discontinuous arrangement of the armature. For this reason, the high alteration of the outlet edge cogging force produced between the armature's core and the mover's permanent magnet when a mover passes the boundary between the armature's installation part and non-installation part has been indicated as a problem. Therefore, we have examined the outlet edge cogging force by installing the auxiliary teeth at the armature's outlet edge in order to minimize the outlet edge cogging force generated when the armature is arranged discontinuously. Moreover, we obtained the calculation by analyzing the shape of the auxiliary teeth in which the outlet edge cogging force is minimized the most.

This paper focuses on the analysis and compensation of thrust ripples in permanent magnet linear synchronous motors (PMLSM). The main drawback in PMLSMs is the presence of thrust ripples, which are mainly due to the interaction between the permanent magnets and armature slotted core. These thrust ripples reduce the performance of the drive system in high precision applications especially at low speeds. This paper analyzes thrust ripples using the discrete wavelet transform. These undesired thrust ripples are compensated by using an adaptive feed forward controller. It is observed that this novel controller reduces about 65 percent of the thrust ripples. An extensive simulation is performed through MATLAB and it is validated through experimental results using a d-SPACE system with a DS1104 control board.

Slotless 선형 동기 전동기(Linear Synchronous Motor)는 가동자의 구조가 간단하고 1차측 철심의 슬롯을 제거하여 갭 중의 자기에너지를 균일화해 추력 변동을 억제할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 고효율로 구동이 가능하고 제어성이 타 선형 전동기에 비해 뛰어나 반송장치의 적용이 확대 되고 있는 실정이다. 하지만 주거 환경 분야의 적용은 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Slotless 선형 동기 전동기의 주거 환경 분야 적용을 위해 위치 피드백 제어에 따른 구동 특성을 고찰하고 속도 진동의 최소화와 안정된 응답 특성을 얻기 위해 부하 탑재와 가속도를 변화시켜 위치 피드백 제어를 비교함으로써 제어기의 유용함을 입증한다.

This paper present the position control method for the application of permanent magnet linear synchronous motor. Controller is designed as a conventional P-PI controller, but the extra information is used such as velocity and acceleration from motion profiles. The profiles comes from S-Curve which is an optimized point-to-point motion profiles to achieve fast motions with minimum vibration[2]. In this application, the targets of the position control are maximum 10um position error within 10msec after respective ending point of position profiles. The implementation of the controller has been done in full digital way. All the controller is designed on the DSP TMS320VC33 control board. To prove performance of the controller, the experiment was performed with a servo linear motor.

Generally, the discontinuous armature permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PM-LSM) is composed by the stator block (accelerator, re-accelerator, and decelerator) and the free running section. However, the stationary discontinuous armature design involves the velocity variation of the mover during drive when the armature's non-installation part changes over to installation part as a result of the outlet edge of the armature. Therefore, we considered deforming the shape of the outlet edge at the armature and apply skew on the permanent magnet by displacing the two magnet segments of each pole. This paper presents the results of a three-dimensional (3-D) numerical analysis with a finite element method (FEM) of the force exerted by the outlet edge.

This paper presents the thermal behavior of a synchronous linear motor with high speed and force. Such a linear motor can successfully replace ball lead screw in machine tools because it has a high velocity, acceleration and good positioning accuracy. On the other hand, low efficiency and high heating up during operation are disadvantage of linear motors. For the application of linear motors to machine tools a water-cooling system is often used. In this research, structure of the linear motor and water cooler is changed to improve the thermal behavior of the linear motor. Some important effects of an integrated cooler, an U-cooler and a thermally symmetrical cooler are presented.

This paper presents a linear motor, which generates large thrust with a low operating rate. In industrial fields there is a need for actuators that work with a low duty cycle but generate large thrusts. An example of such a case is provided by the actuators for ejector mechanisms in electric injection molding machines. The ordinary LSM (linear synchronous motor) is unsuitable for this large-thrust and low-operating-rate usage, because of its large size and high cost. This paper contains experimental results on linear motors that can generate large thrusts for a short time, and which can be cheaply produced. The described linear motor could be contained space of $250mm \times250mm\times 250mm$ and generate a maximum thrust of about 20000 N at a current of 250 A.
