As a SaaS offering, the Motor CAD platform enables manufacturers to advance from motor design to production in record time. Boston-based ECM PCB Stator Tech is demonstrating the company’s PrintStator ...

A typical low-voltage variable-frequency drive. Industrial facilities commonly use variable-frequency drives (VFDs) to control the speed at which alternating current motors operate. Let’s examine a ...

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we presented a 3-phase, 480VAC motor circuit with its associated controls (Figure). We stepped through a logical, systematic approach to troubleshoot the main power ...

Both software and hardware are parts of all motor control systems such as IGBTs, WBG semiconductors and MCUs. Industry 4.0 strongly relies on motor control for its development but energy consumption ...

The amount of noise in a motor depends on the type of motor, environmental conditions, and the specific application. Permanent magnet and hybrid stepper motors are generally quieter, as they have a ...

Stepper motors are now being used more frequently in industrial environments. Increased performance and reduced size make them increasingly attractive, and their application is no longer limited to ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. At one time, designing products with motors was relatively easy. Brushed dc motors and single-phase ac induction motors didn’t require a lot of extra ...

Altech’s load-safe LSF Series and RT Series non-fusible motor disconnect switches and accessories de-energize electrical circuits for safe maintenance, repairs, inspections and emergencies. RS has ...

All circuits, analog or digital, have characteristics dependent on the values of their component parts. Invariably, these parts are non-ideal in many ways. Even their most fundamental characteristics, ...
