Revision as of 15:12, 18 March 2015 by Doorknob747 (talk | contribs) (added something.)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)This type of electric motor instead of using magnetism for it to revolve, it uses it to turn its cam up and down. It does this by a coil on the bottom of the motor and another on the top, both inside. The cam is usually magnetic. If the cam is magnetic north in the inside end of the motor usually for the cam to go inside the motor casing, the top coil is magnetized as south and the bottom is north. To go down the top becomes north and bottom becomes south. Although this is a good efficient way for an electric reciprocating engine, it usually requires a lot of power, and emits a lot of heat. Usually the life time of this type of engine is small. <-----do not delete this page, delete if I do not place sources within a week, I am not home right now. ----->
