Concept Design: Motion options

• Linear Motors: A linear motor is an electric motor that has had its stator and rotor "unrolled" so that instead of producing a torque (rotation) it produces a linear force along its length .
• This motor consists of two main parts, a stator and a motor.
• The stator is a stationary that would generate a magnetic field causing the motor to slide – friction free – on the stator in a linear motion.
• When switched on, the motor will slide causing the window mounted to it to move with it.
