The VWDIR104 AC gear motors are available in four versions with either 1/10- or 1/15-hp (74.5- or 49.2-W), 115/230-V, 60/50-Hz permanent split-capacitor motors. The new devices bring to 79 the company ...

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 ...

A synchronous and synchronous motors are the two main categories of ac motors. The induction motor is a common form of asynchronous motor and is basically an ac transformer with a rotating secondary.

Any electrical motor, from an idealized viewpoint, consists of two sets of magnets—one set stationary, one set free to move—placed in special geometric relation to one another. For most practical ...

This document written by Steve Bowling, Application Segments Engineer at Microchip Technology, discusses how motor works and describes the AC induction motor, variable-speed ACIM control, and FOC.

During the constant worldwide campaign to make the planet as clean as possible, electric vehicle (EV) drivers have an improving chance of driving cars with fewer moving parts. One of an EV’s greatest ...

When specifying, start by determining the required torque at the gearbox output shaft. A gearmotor's purpose is to act as a power transmission component. As such, the two most important factors at the ...
