DC motors may not be the wave of the future, but they certainly have a secure place in today’s workplace (see DC Isn’t Dead). Therefore, it’s worthwhile for electrical professionals to take a look at ...

A new edition of the only American national standard for repair of motors and generators — “ANSI/EASA AR100-2010: Recommended Practice for the Repair of Rotating Electrical Apparatus” (ANSI/EASA AR100 ...

DC Motors were king in industry up until the late 1980s; These motors were popular because they were able to run to a variable speed setpoint, and they could run at full torque from stall to base ...

With the increasing use of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), there is increased generation of electrical currents on shaft motors, causing electrical damage to bearings. Manufacturers and end users ...

Sizing a DC motor to accurately meet a set of requirements can be a thankless task. Sizing a DC motor to accurately meet a set of requirements can be a thankless task. Having to choose between ...

The motor and motor control markets are thriving in a number of areas, particularly medical and robotic applications. Also, there is a rich demand for small, efficient, high- and low-torque, and high- ...

Brushless-dc motors are taking center stage in medical-equipment design because they last twice as long a competing technologies. • Sensorless brushless-dc-drives have evolved to a point where they ...
