A linear servo motor is a direct drive solution where the load is directly connected to the moving portion of the motor. Direct drive linear motors are available in a variety of configurations (iron core, U-channel, tubular) but ultimately work the same. Linear motors operate with an AC power supply and servo controller, which are often the same as those used for rotary servo motors. The linear motor primary part is connected to the power supply to produce a magnet field. By changing the current phase in the coils, the polarity of each coil is changed.
