Assembly Instructions Linear Motors LMS Description of the linear motors Description of the linear motors 3.1 Field of application A linear motor consists of two components, the forcer (primary part) with coils and the stator (secondary part) with perma- nent magnets. The coils carrying alternating current generate a magnetic field that changes over time and interacts with the steady magnetic field of the stator.
