Why Use Linear motors

Industrial Applications

Linear Induction Motors are currently used in projects around the world to drive a wide range of industrial applications including sewage processing systems, materials handling & transport, gate / door drives, extruded material pullers, medical scanning equipment and road surface testing equipment to name only a few. Linear Induction Motors from Force Engineering will provide your industry with the reliability and efficiency required.

Key advantages of Linear Induction Motors in industry:

  • LIMs have no moving parts to get clogged and damaged with dirt, swarf and waste
  • LIMs are virtually maintenance free, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
  • There is no requirement for potentially problematic connecting mechanisms such as chains, gear boxes or belts.
  • They are incredibly flexible and can move at variable speeds giving both very rapid acceleration and deceleration across loads varying in weight from 1-2kg to 30,000kg.
  • They can work in the most rugged environments; hot or cold, submerged or with toxic chemicals and hazardous materials.
