#8: What are linear induction motors?
An induction motor is one in which the current in the rotor is induced by the electromagnetic field in the stator, eliminating the use of magnets. A linear induction motor is a type of linear motor based on a rotary AC induction motor.
Like permanent magnet linear motors (commonly designated as ironless and iron core types) linear induction motors consist of a primary part (analogous to the stator in a rotary induction motor) and a secondary part (analogous to the rotor in a rotary version). The primary consists of a three-phase winding assembled on a steel lamination stack and encapsulated in epoxy.
