Calculating forces

Determination of the motor force
The force that the motor has to provide consists of the sum of the individual forces at any
time. The signs of the forces must be taken into account!
The following diagram shows an example of the individual forces for a linear motor and the
resulting motor force F
Figure 5-7
Determination of the peak force
The peak force F
can be easily determined from the above figure.
