Brushless motor also known as BLDC motor is a synchronous motor that gets power by a DC electric source. It uses an integrated inverter, which ultimately produces an AC electric signal to drive the motor. British scientist Michael Faraday first experimented with the idea of the electromagnetic induction motor in the early 1800’s. During that… Read More »
DC motor runs on direct or dc current. On this page we shall understand the function of each component of the motor. In general there are two major parts of any motor i.e. stationary part and moving part. The stationary part is mainly the outer part that houses the field windings and receives the supply also… Read More »
The speed of a dc shunt motor is directly proportional to the back emf and inversely proportional to the flux per pole. DC shunt motors are very useful and important part of any motor application. The motor speed control in dc shunt motor is very crucial because it impacts the use and design of the… Read More »
To better understand the servo motor let us first see what is the meaning of term “servo”. The term servo is applicable for any system that uses a feedback mechanism in order to control the required situation. The feedback can be in the form of signals from sensors or limit switches or number of revolutions,… Read More »
As a new electrical student or a common man this questions comes in mind that why we prefer 3 phase power system. In recent years 3 phase electric wiring has become common and mostly used worldwide for power generation, power transmission, distribution and three phase engines or motors. A single-phase electric power supply is the… Read More »
A stepper motor is an electromechanical device which converts electrical pulses into discrete mechanical movements. The shaft or spindle of a stepper motor rotates in discrete step increments when electrical command pulses are applied to it in the proper sequence. Stepper motor (or step motor) is in fact a brushless DC electric motor that divides… Read More »
