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 ...

To reap all the benefits that an electric motor drive can offer, choose one that's a perfect match for your application A speed control enables the motor to achieve maximum efficiency during all ...

Sophisticated motor control is no longer the sole province of custom hardware and proprietary control techniques. Advances in powerful, low-cost digital-signal controllers (DSCs) let designers use ...

In a speed controller, the motor’s speed (or velocity) is being controlled. There is an element that detects speed, whether it be a tachometer or some sort of encoder. This monitoring element provides ...

En route to getting the off-the-peg DC-51 motor speed controller to better suit my small milling machine, I had a go at working out what the circuit is. Approx circuit of DC-51 motor speed controller ...

AC induction motors are widely used in industrial applications due to their reliability and low maintenance needs. Comprised of a stator and rotor, these motors convert electrical energy into ...

RS Americas, an industrial automation and electronics distributor, now offers variable speed drives (VSDs) for solar powered pumping applications from Schneider Electric, an automation technology ...
