Linear Induction Motor

 

 Linear Induction Motor:

The induction motor is used to convert the electrical energy into rotation energy. Another form of induction motor is a linear induction motor.

It is used to convert electrical energy into linear motion.

The linear induction motor is known as LIM.

 It operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction. 

This type of motor is most popular in traction applications. 

Similar to the regular induction motor, the linear induction motor also has two windings; primary winding and secondary winding. 

In most cases, the primary winding is made up of copper and the secondary winding is made up of aluminum.

What is a Linear Induction Motor (LIM)?

The three-phase induction motor produces linear progressive motion and the single-phase induction motor produces oscillatory motion.
