Abstract :
A 2D direct-drive, low cost, easy to manufacture machine based on switched reluctance principle for industrial applications is proposed. This motor consists of the following major components: 1) aluminum base; 2) six laminated silicon-steel slots with coils; 3) two pairs of supporting mechanical slides holding the moving platforms; and 4) optical encoders to detect and feedback its position information.
