Abstract

A linear electric motor including a primary part having a flux guiding element on the end faces of the primary part, a three-phase winding on the primary part that produces a first magnetic field and a permanent magnet on each end face that produces a second magnetic field that is superimposed on the first field to reduce force ripple is disclosed. The primary part has tooth modules and also end-tooth modules. The end-tooth modules have no winding, are located on the end face, and are smaller in volume than and shaped differently from the tooth modules. The primary part is separated from a secondary part by an air gap, and the end-tooth modules are separated from the secondary part by an additional air gap.
