Abstract: Linear motor having optimized power, including a U-shaped profiled stator housing, which forms an inner installation space for receiving a winding packet consisting of multiple coils. The installation space is delimited on the cover side by a carriage driven so it is longitudinally displaceable by magnetic force on the stator housing, on which carriage a length scale is fastened, opposite to which a position sensor is arranged in the stator housing. The installation area for the arrangement of the winding packet in the stator housing is uninfluenced by the position sensor also arranged in the stator housing.

Abstract: An electrically conductive housing with cable strain relief and shield connection, wherein a cable is introduced into a recess of the housing, wherein the strain relief includes a thrust member that can be displaced radially in the recess of the housing and the thrust member is biased with at least one housing-side clamping screw, presses the cable sheathing of the cable against a housing-side mold surface opposite the thrust member. The recess passes through the device wall of the housing in whose wall area the thrust member is arranged. The housing-side mold surface opposite the thrust member includes an mold surface conformed approximately to the outer shape of the cable sheathing that transitions into the recess in the device wall enlarged in comparison to the mold surface.
