A magnet machine may translate or rotate with one element stationary and another element moving. One element has mounted thereon a plurality of magnets arranged in a sequenced array extensive in the direction of operation, the magnets fixed with N-pole magnet faces opposing S-pole magnet faces across gaps between the magnets, and side faces arranged in a plane. A second element has a single or integrated magnet mounted with one pole face positioned parallel to, and gapped apart from the plane of the plurality of magnets. This pole face is disrupted by an array of spaced apart grooves. The direction of motion is in the plane. A solenoid may be mounted within one or more of the grooves so provide a staring force or a braking force to the moving element. |
