What’s your secret evil plan? Are you looking for world domination by building a machine that can truly replicate itself? Or are you just tired of winding motor rotors and other coils by hand? Either ...

Be careful with single-phase motors, as most single-phase motors have components to help them start or continue to run ...

For safe, long-term use of a compressor, the motor winding temperature must be kept below certain limits, in all conditions in which the appliance may operate. For example, compressors from AC ...

SAIC Motor has been granted a patent for an innovative electric motor winding structure. This design features a multi-phase winding arrangement using hairpin conductors in a grooved iron core, ...

To prevent a motor from burning up, you must provide a means of protecting it from overcurrent (overload, short circuit, or ground fault). If you can remember not to confuse motor protection with ...

The operation of an electric motor is typically simple and reliable, making it possible to overlook during day-to-day maintenance practices. Having a checklist makes it easy to know exactly what to ...

Full-voltage, single-speed motor starters: Single-speed squirrel-cage motors have starters that fall into two categories: full-voltage or across-the-line starters; and reduced-voltage starters.

Bipolar stepper motors are used in many applications, from driving paper through a printer to moving an XY stage in industrial equipment. Typically, the motors are driven and controlled by inexpensive ...
