Abstract

An electric motor design and method useful to reduce noise/vibration generated by a rotor/shaft assembly is provided whereby the motor has a stator which has an axial length and a rotor which has an axial length less than the axial length of the stator such that when the rotor rotates within the motor, the rotor is axially fixed by a stator field.
