Making a 6-cylinder voice coil motor
This is heavily modified subwoofer concept to achieve high force + high velocity. Magnets are neodymium. The motor body is soft iron. The geometry is optimized for magnetic flux. 6 identical motors transfer the force to the top plate. An encoder tape and reader mounts between two plates and reads the position. A load cell reads the force. This will act as the heart of my shock absorber dyno. Will cover that later.
