In the forcer rod, multiple magnets are glued behind one another in a rod shape, with the matching poles meeting in each case (north-north, south-south). In this cavity is where the forcer rod moves the two components are separated by a small air gap.
It is split into three electrically isolated segments and is hollow inside. The oblong-shaped winding of the linear motor is self-supporting and coreless so that no cogging torque is generated. This design enables motors with a particularly small volume that can also produce a very high torque. However, with FAULHABER, the neodymium permanent magnets are always housed in the forcer rod, while the coil acts exclusively as the stator. The permanent magnets each act as the corresponding counterpart. In linear motors, the winding can be either the stator or the rotor. How are FAULHABER linear motors designed? As a result, with a linear motor, the torque is produced in a straight line and the forcer rod moves back and forth along one axis.
Its forcer rod and stator are virtually 'rolled out' and placed on top of each other in their straight form. In contrast, the linear motor has a forcer rod rather than a rotor as its moving component. The conventional electric motor generates its force from a rotational motion its rotor and stator are positioned in a circular arrangement.
