This paper describes the design and modelling of a DC linear stepper motor (DLSM), to investigate the air-gap magnetic flux density and the static features of the thrust force under the DC current excitation condition, while taking the nonlinear properties of iron materials used into account. A Finite Element Method (FEM) study utilizing software called a “MagNet” was employed to model and construct a linear DC motor. The thrust force, air-gap flux density, and static thrust force at various airgaps were compared in simulation and real time. The result showed that the magnetic flux density presents a sinusoidal shape in both the simulation and measurement, where the peak error value was around 7.14%. A comparison was made with thrust force, as the armature current has different values; the results show that the difference between the experimental and computed peak value was 8.07%, while the error between the measured and simulated value was 5.02% when the thrust force was measured at different air gap lengths.
