Modern motor control systems use processors and software to both improve motor performance and reduce cost. Modern controllers employ sophisticated techniques to boost the performance and operational ...

Since AC induction motors have been established as the preferred choice for industrial motors and the need for reduced power in all aspects of design is ever present, the efficiency of these motors is ...

Every day engineers design products that employ single-phase induction motors. Speed control of single-phase induction motors is desirable in most motor control applications since it not only provides ...

Speed, torque, and horsepower are three inter-related parameters in motor control. The speed of a motor, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm), defines a motor's ability to spin at a rate per unit ...

To reap all the benefits that an electric motor drive can offer, choose one that's a perfect match for your application A speed control enables the motor to achieve maximum efficiency during all ...

The topic of motors and motor control techniques is wide and varied. Part one of this two-part article will cover the principles of alternating-current (AC) motor operation and control. Part two will ...

Modern applications requirements are increasingly demanding. Consequently designers must do more with less, integrating multiple functions into the same processor and optimizing system cost. And ...

Through legislative and social pressures, public attention is focusing more on the energy used to perform basic domestic functions such as food preparation, cleaning, and climate control.
