This paper proposes an optimal design method for the weight and cost of a moving magnet typer linear DC motor (MM-LDM). The optimal design condition such as type and size of MM-LDM were determined by the trinary search algorithm after adjusting a standard function and its related parameters. In order to verigy results of the optimal design by the computer simulation, the designed values such as a thrust, a current, a velocity, and etc. of the fabricated MM-LDM were measured. And the measurement results are in good agreement with the designed ones.
