The coreless linear synchronous motor (coreless LSM) has been widely used as a driving source of semiconductor production processes for machine speeding up, positioning accuracy and simple maintenance. However, this coreless LSM suffers the disadvantage of decreased thrust force created by the leakage of magnetic flux. With the goal of increasing the generated thrust force and decreasing the cogging force, the slot of the core part was removed and a moving-coil-type slotless LSM (moving-coil-type slotless LSM) is proposed in this paper. Although this moving-coil-type slotless LSM with a back-yoke at the primary side demonstrated an increase in the generated thrust force, it remained capable of generating the cogging force when the primary side was moved due to the position between the permanent magnet and the back-yoke. Therefore, we attempted to decrease the cogging force of the moving-coil-type slotless LSM. We found that the back-yoke length at the primary side needs to be made $0.5{\tau}$ longer than the integral multiple of the magnetic pole pitch in order to decrease the cogging force created by the moving-coil-type slotless LSM.

The detent force by end-effect has an undesired influence on moving coil type Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor(PMLSM). So, the reduction of detent force by end-effect is especially required for the improvement of thrust characteristics. In this paper, in order to reduce detent force by end-effect, the auxiliary-teeth is installed at the end part of mover. It is also analyzed by Finite Element Analysis(FEA) and optimized by using neural network. By comparison, the detent force is reduced about 41.4[%] comparing to that of basic model.

In the machine tool industry, direct drive linear motor technology is of increasing interest as a means to achieve high acceleration, and to increase reliability. The advantages of such a motor are that it has a good linearity and has no need of such mechanical energy conversion parts, which change rotary motion into linear motion, as screws, gears, chains etc In this paper, two structures of LOA are analyzed. One is the moving-coil type LOA and the other is moving-magnet type LOA. Two types of LOA are analyzed, with reference to the following parameters as variables: magnetic field, flux linkage, motor thrust and back emf. These variables are derived by the use of analytical method in terms of two-dimensional rectangular coordinate system. The maximum values of thrust according to such design parameters as air-gap length and magnet height for each model is also represented. The results are validated extensively by comparison with finite element method. In particular, we experiment moving-coil LOA which is already manufactured and confirm that the experimental results are shown in good agreement with analysis through the comparison of between analytical and experimental results

In this paper, mechanism design of optical pickup actuator for fast access is proposed. This actuator is composed of moving magnet type actuator and moving coil type actuator for tracking and fine motion, respectively. Moving magnet type tracking actuator is configurated by two permanent magnets and four air-core solenoids. Additional damper by induced current in tracking actuator can reduce the transient vibration between the coarse seeking servo and fine seeking servo. Variable stiffness can be acquired by applying current to air-core solenoid simply. This actuator can achieve fast access by these additional damper and stiffness. Performance of this actuator is predicted through the FEM, simulation and simple experiment. Settling time for transient vibration is reduced to 14.7% according to simulation result.

A moving-coil-type linear oscillatory actuator is consisted of the NdFeB permanent magnets with high specific energy as the stator, a coil-wrapped nonmagnetic hollow rectangular structure and an iron core as a pathway for magnetic flux. The inductance of moving coil and the push/pull effect is obtained from the permeance model of LOA with the open magnetic circuit. The analytical method are verified using the 2D finite element method.

A moving-coil-type linear oscillatory actuator(LOA) consists of the NdFeB permanent magnets with high specific energy as the stator, a coil-wrapped nonmagnetic hollow rectangular structure. The LOA system was represented by the voltage equation of coil and the mechanical equation of motion. This set of equations was manipulated in state-space form. The EMF constant kE of equation parameters in state-space form can be obtained by using the induced voltage in armature coils at open circuit test. kE and other parameters provide the system matrices and transfer function for frequency response and dynamic simulation. Voltage source inverter-fed LOA is examined aiming to compare with results of simulation.

The Moving Coil type Linear Oscillatory Actuator(MC-LOA) is widely used in system needed reciprocation of short stroke. MC-LOA is suitable for high speed operation and correctness stroke control. This paper designed a MC-LOA to combine mechanical dynamic equation with electric dynamic equation. Electric dynamic equation was obtained from equivalent circuit and the parameters were obtained using Finite Element Method (FEM). Then, we analyzed the dynamic and steady state characteristics of the designed MC-LOA.

In order to overcome the demerit and to improve the operation characteristics of Moving Coil type Linear Oscillatory Actuator(MC-LOA) with single-pole permanent magnet, this paper presents two models having the balanced magnetic circuit by multi-pole permanent magnet. They are short coil type with two-pole single-sided and two-ple double-sided permanent magnet. The characteristics between single-pole and multi-pole permanent magnet type MC-LOA are compared. As a result, multi-pole type MC-LOA has more merits than single-pole type about operation characteristics improvement and machine volume. The characteristics analysis is performed by their dynamic analysis composed of kinetic and electric equations and Finite Element Method(FEM). The propriety of multi-pole type MC-LOA model is verified with analysis results.

A moving-coil-type linear motor, designed and fabricated, is consisted of the NdFeB permanent magnets with high specific energy as the stator, a coil-wrapped nonmagnetic hollow rectangular structure and an iron core as a pathway for magnetic flux. The interaction between permanent magmet and armature fie1d, so called "push/pull effect", is to shift the airgap flux density variation due to the magnet alone by a certain amount. Thrust therefore is shift downward or upward. The push/pull effect was presented through the FEM analysis and the static tests. We compared the thrust obtained through the FEM analysis with the static tests. Finally, we present the linearity and correction coefficients of the thrust in consideration of the push/pull effects.l effects.
