Insistent demand for energy-saving industrial and home appliances has recently escalated because of energy and environmental matter and the necessity to comply with new energy consumption regulations.

Electric motors, which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, play an essential role in a variety of industrial and robotics applications. Given that electric motors account for ...

Demand for low-cost, robust motor drives has spurred increased use of sensorless vector control of induction and BLDC motors — in everything from consumer products to industrial applications, in ...

A start-up company controls induction motors using software that runs on standard drive hardware and optimally generates torque on demand. The result is maximally efficient operation and no parameters ...

Motors and drives are the longtime workhorses of the HVAC industry. These devices work long hours in tough conditions without complaint. And today’s motors and drives are not only tough, they’re ...

The AC induction motor is often referred to as the workhorse of the industry because it offers users simple, rugged construction, easy maintenance, and cost-effective pricing. These factors have ...

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 ...

The way we control the speed of fan motors or pump motors has tremendously changed in the past two decades with the introduction of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), aka variable-frequency controllers ...

A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) regulates the speed of a 3-phase AC electric motor by controlling the frequency and voltage of the power it delivers to the motor. These devices, also known as ...
