Combining the advantages of permanent magnet and induction motors, new synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM) offer potentially breakthrough technology for variable speed drive (VSD) and motor packages ...

Electric motors consume almost half of the electricity produced worldwide. They, in fact, provide the necessary driving force for much of today’s equipment. Motors, pumps, and fans are present in an ...

Part 1 in a series of articles on motor control design starts with an introduction to motors and controllers. Electric motors consume almost half of the electricity produced worldwide. They, in fact, ...

The two most important electric motors are the ac induction motor and the permanent magnet (PM) brushless synchronous motor, also known as the brushless dc or ac servo motor. These motors have ...

An introduction to the symmetric, multiphase, wound-rotor “synchronous” doubly-fed motor or generator system, called SYNCHRO-SYM. How SYNCHRO-SYM is only possible with brushless, automatic, ...

Energy conversion efficiency has always played an important role in electronics design, and in the case of electric motors, the conversion takes place twice: first to create the electricity needed to ...

Designing robots requires precision and flexibility. When creating a humanoid robot system, there are mechanical and electrical considerations that you need to understand before beginning the actual ...

NORD is constantly working to improve and expand on their product offerings. New versions of the NORDAC ON/ON+ are being developed to include safety functions such as SLS, SMS and SSM in addition to ...
