Abstract
A novel brushless DC linear motor has been developed to achieve high thrust and accurate positioning. Furthermore, due to its novel topology, it can be used as a slotless linear stepping motor. The design and assessment of its first prototype employing a movable set of high energy product NdFeB magnets are presented. The features of the motor are described, and the results of the tests carried out to analyse its behaviour are presented
