Single-phase Synchronous Motor

November 1, 2020 by Tomas Lugo

Single-phase Current

These are the motors that run on single-phase alternating current. It should be clarified that some of these motors have extremely low starting torque and sometimes need an extra pair of coils just … [Read more...] about Single-phase Synchronous Motor

Linear Induction Motor

October 16, 2020 by Tomas Lugo

Linear Induction Motor

From the name linear, we can deduce that this is a rotary motor that has been cut and unrolled to provide us with linear (straight line) motion and force instead of rotational torque. In this motor, … [Read more...] about Linear Induction Motor

AC Motors

July 12, 2020 by Tomas Lugo

AC Motors

These motors work with alternating current (AC). To control their speed, unlike DC motors where the armature coil current is varied, in AC motors, it is controlled by varying the frequency. For … [Read more...] about AC Motors
