Cornering linear motor

Abstract:

A linear motor includes a forcer having a plurality of teeth spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the forcer. At least some teeth arranged about a longitudinal center of the forcer are dimensioned different from at least some other teeth arranged at ends of the forcer distal from the longitudinal center. The teeth may be dimensioned to define a pocket relative to the longitudinal axis of the forcer.
