A double-sided linear induction motor (DSLIM) optimised for high-thrust and high-efficiency applications in automation and transportation is designed, analysed, and simulated in this work. With its symmetrical double-sided design, the DSLIM offers balanced magnetic flux and increased thrust density, which makes it appropriate for automated material handling and high-speed urban transit systems like Maglev trains. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to analyse performance and calculate important parameters such as thrust force, synchronous speed, and slip. According to simulation results, the DSLIM design is effective. It produces a lot of thrust, is around 70% efficient at the ideal slip levels, and significantly reduces end effects, which are major problems in LIM applications. The design's precision and dependability are confirmed by the high degree of agreement between theoretical calculations and simulation results.
