VCMs are two-lead, single phase motors that do not require commutation, resulting in simple operation. These motors are most commonly used for short travel paths where high acceleration and constant force is required.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Voice Coil Motor Configurations<\/h2>\n\n<p>There are two different configurations for a voice coil motor (VCM). A moving magnet design has a magnet assembly that moves in and out of a fixed coil. A moving coil design has a coil assembly that moves in and out of a fixed permanent magnet. The simplicity of either design enables a smaller form factor, compared to brushless DC linear motors. Celera Motion <a href=\"https:\/\/www.celeramotion.com\/frameless-motors\/products\/direct-drive-frameless-linear-motors\/voice-coil\/juke-series-round-body\/\">Juke Series<\/a> voice coil motors offer a high copper packing, paired with strong permanent magnets, for optimal force to weight ratio.
