Study of Intermittent Stator PM-LSM control method by a position detector using hall element

Previously, our laboratory has proposed a Intermittent Stator permanent magnet linear synchronous motor as long-distance conveying equipment of industrial equipment. The sensor to detect the mover position uses the linear encoder so far. Because the wiring for this linear encoder limits the movement of the mover, it is unsuitable as the sensor of the long distance transportation device. Therefore, this paper proposes the mover position detection with the hall element as a position detector that takes the place of the linear encoder.
