Abstract
A motor controller () for an axial-gap motor (), which has a rotor (), two stators () disposed on both sides of the rotor () in the axial direction, and armature windings () wrapped around the stators (), includes a field current controller () which adjusts the field current in the current supplied to the armature windings () of at least one of the stators () so as to restrain a thrust force acting on the rotor () in the axial direction of the rotor (). This restrains the thrust force acting on the rotor () of the axial-gap motor ().
