A control device includes a drive controller that controls the driving of an electromagnetic coil, and a regeneration controller that controls the regeneration of power from the electromagnetic coil. The drive controller includes an excitation interval setting unit that sets excitation and non-excitation intervals such that voltage is applied to the electromagnetic coil during the excitation interval but is not applied during the non-excitation interval. The excitation and non-excitation intervals are symmetrical with centers that respectively correspond to the π/2 and π phase points of the induced voltage waveform. The regeneration controller includes a regeneration interval setting unit that sets regeneration and non-regeneration intervals such that power is regenerated from the electromagnetic coil during the regeneration interval but is not regenerated during the non-regeneration interval. The regeneration and non-regeneration intervals are symmetrical with centers that respectively correspond to the π/2 and π phase points of the induced voltage waveform.
