Early incarnations of the electric motor first appeared in the 1740s through the work of Scottish Benedictine monk and scientist, Andrew Gordon. Other scientists such as Michael Faraday and Joseph ...

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 ...

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 ...

What if one innovation could redefine how industries consume energy, slashing waste and environmental impact while saving millions? Enter ABB’s new brushless synchronous motor, a technological marvel ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Excitation Systems Market by Type (Static and Brushless), Controller Type (Analog and Digital), Application (Synchronous Generators and Synchronous Motors), and Region ...

Motors are machines that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy using magnetic forces. When current is passed through a wire loop that lies in a magnetic field, a turning force, or torque, ...

The energy-efficiency regulatory update scheduled for 2023 will affect builders of HVAC equipment, industrial fans, cooling towers and pumps, including those used in irrigation systems. The new ...

New and increasingly stringent efficiency standards have made motor efficiency a priority among motor manufacturers and designers of motor-driven systems. While the Energy Independence and Security ...

A straight line may not be the best path between two or more rotors. • Electric machines with noncoaxial rotors date back to the 19th century, but today’s electronic controls now make them practical. ...

Selection of replacement motors is usually straightforward if the ratings are equivalent. Sometimes, however, a different type of motor is necessary or desirable. For success in these cases, it is ...
