If you imagine a traditional electric motor being "unrolled" and laid flat on a table, you have the basic conceptual model of a linear motor.
In the world of modern automation, the demand for speed and accuracy has pushed traditional mechanical systems to their limits.

Imagine a traditional rotary motor. It spins a shaft, which then requires belts, gears, or lead screws to turn that circular motion into straight-line movement.
When you compare the price tag of a traditional rotary motor with a linear motor, the difference is often striking.
