In this past, industrial linear motion systems chiefly used a hydraulic cylinder, pneumatic cylinder or ball screw driven with rotary motor. The linear motor which has been used for devices in the logistics and factory transportation in 1980's is being widely used also for industrial devices involving the advancement of the design of making high thrust technology and the sensor and control technology now. Accordingly a higher function is being requested to the linear electromagnetic drive system which uses a linear motor along with it. In this situation, the result of investigating the linear electromagnetic drive system were published in the following technical report.
" Elemental technology use for industrial linear electromagnetic drive systems and their trend, Technical report No.1154 (2009)
This report is the sequel. In this report, the followings are described in detail;
(1) Application field of the system,
(2) Elemental technology used for the system,
(3) Case where the system or elemental technologies are used.
Referring not only to this report but also the report previously published deepens the understanding of linear motors, elemental technologies used for the system and the applications more, and makes the system a higher function.
