This paper presents the studies on an induction planar actuator. The device uses the same principles as a linear induction motor, where the interaction between a traveling magnetic field and a conducting surface produces eddy current, which leads to the generation of a linear force. However, the planar actuator has traveling magnetic fields in two perpendicular directions, and a combination of these...
