The easiest way to design a linear-motion system is to add components one by one. Then, step-by-step calculations relate input to power dissipated moving a load in a specific amount of time ...

Discover the fascinating world of electromagnetism with our step-by-step guide on how to make the simplest motor at home. This video reveals the basic principles of creating a functional motor using ...

Synopsis: This paper examines how rack and pinion drives compare to linear motors and ball screws. Four key areas are examined: Linear Motion, Ball Screws, Backlash and Electronic Pre-Loading and ...

We’ve seen plenty of motor projects, but [Jeremy]’s DIY Tubular Linear Motor is a really neat variety of stepper motor in a format we certainly don’t see every day. It started as … ...

Fort Worth startup Linear Labs has raised $6 million in new funding in its quest to build a better motor. The investment follows Linear Labs' recent $68.9 million incentive deal with Fort Worth to ...

With its Hunstable Electric Turbine, Linear Labs promises three times the torque, twice the power and a 10% increase in range in an electric vehicle over a typical permanent magnet motor.

With his son Brad, Fred Hunstable—an inventor who holds more than 75 patents—was the first to build and test an entirely new methodology in electric motors and generators in 120 years.
