Overview of Analytical Models for the Design of Linear and Planar Motors

“…Several types of planar motors can be distinguished based on the number of DOF and the range of motion of the DOF. For high-precision applications, 6 DOF, long-stroke planar motors, which can both provide magnetic levitation and propulsion in the x y-plane have been investigated in the past decades [18]- [23]. These motors can either be constructed with stationary magnets and moving coils or the other way around with moving magnets and stationary coils.…”

Design and experimental validation of a magnetically suspended planar motor with integrated contactless energy transfer system

“…An example of a planar motor with integrated CET system can be found in [2], however in this configuration the translator is magnetically levitated above the stator and the stroke is limited. Levitated planar motors use a repulsive normal force to counteract the gravitational force acting on the translator and, therefore, are all coreless.…”

Modeling and analysis of a magnetically levitated synchronous permanent magnet planar motor with concentric structure winding

“…As finite element method time consuming, analytical method will be adopted to obtain the magnetic field, and before analysis some assumptions will be made in order to simplify the model. The relative permeability of the iron yoke has a value of infinity, the magnet array has a periodicity over the x and y direction and the magnetization value of the permanent magnet is not changed [8][9][10][11][12] .
