A company based in Texas called Linear Labs thinks it's figured out how to make that magic motor and if it's right, it could change electric vehicles forever. Roadshow interviewed Brad and Fred ...

I was the customer service representative.” What Makes Linear Labs’ Motors So Unique? Electric motors first came on the scene in the early 1800s. Like many new inventions, they were enhanced ...

It's based around synchronous linear electric motors. In a regular cylindrical electric motor, a magnet-equipped rotor spins within a magnetic field-generating stator (that's the part with the ...

Scientists from Stellenbosch University in South Africa have designed a new gravity energy storage system, based on linear electric machines (LEM), that could be used in decommissioned mines.

Batteries go where it makes the most sense in terms of stability and safety. Electric motors are compact and don't need much cooling compared to a combustion engine, and there's no exhaust to ...

Need a powerful electric motor on the cheap ... Some of the nuggets we get are the linear relationship of torque to current (10-15A max) and speed to voltage (12-15V DC) on these units, and ...
