Dynamic Simulation of a Novel Hybrid Linear Stepper Motor by Means of Matlab/simulink®

The main advantage of linear motors is that they do not turn the electric energy supplied into a rotary movement, but convert it directly to a linear movement. The direct coupling of the mover armature to the load provides several performance benefits in addition, as high speeds, high precision, no backlash, high stiffness and fast response and settling times. In these circumstances it is interesting the study of a novel high performance direct drive modular hybrid linear stepper motor. The results obtained via computer simulation performed using Matlab/SIMULINK environment stand by to sustain the pertinence of the motor configuration in study.
