Abstract
A linear induction motor (LIM) including a primary core extending longitudinally and having a front portion and a rear portion. Coils are mounted on the primary core. The coils include a first set of coils mounted on the front portion and spaced apart from each other by a first pitch. The coils further having a second set of coils, between the first set of coils and the rear portion, which are spaced apart from each other by an industry-standard distance. Each one of the first pitch is greater than the industry-standard distance for reducing an end effect onto the LIM when the LIM travels forward. The first set of coils may have different spaces between its coils and may also include equally spaced coils.
