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 ...
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 ...
The schematic of a PMSM drive using a DTC-based speed loop PDFF controller is shown in Fig. 1. This DTC scheme is implemented in stator flux frame, which requires knowledge of stator flux in ...
Motors account for at least half of the energy consumed in the U.S. Selecting the right control method for an application lets the motor run most efficiently while maximizing torque and overall ...
Electric clutches may not be always the engineer’s first choice when looking at torque-control solutions. Electric motor drive systems, pneumatic clutches, or even friction spring types are thought of ...
A brushless-DC motor is common in ceiling fan and pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera designs. But you can’t use the same brushless-DC motor solution for both of these end products. A ceiling fan driver ...
The new Audi RS 5 is such a technological showcase it should come with the iconic ‘Vorsprung durch Technik’ advertising ...
GKN Automotive has started trials of the world-first all-electric car equipped with two-speed transmission and torque vectoring between front wheels. Extensive winter testing are performed in Arjeplog ...
