Purpose

The paper aims to introduces a design of a planar motor with six degrees of freedom (dof).

Design/methodology/approach

The paper provides a description of the model.

Findings

The paper finds that this planar motor is magnetically levitated in four dof and magnetically driven in the other two. In the design of the system, structural characteristics of all elements as well as magnetic forces done by magnetic actuators have been taken into account. The model was realized by means fem and then was simulated dynamically in developed Simulink model. The design of the system has been greatly influenced by the sensor system. Hall effect proves have been introduced in some parts of the system. Magnetic flux density, and its direction can be measured in different parts of the system.

Originality/value

The paper describes the design of a planar motor with six dof.
