Many applications using miniature brushed DC motors require motors to operate at more than one load point or through specific load cycles. Running a motor at usable load points requires a variable, ...

Electric motors, which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, play an essential role in a variety of industrial and robotics applications. Given that electric motors account for ...

For motor applications, engineers have several options at their disposal. Typically, engineers can choose between direct-current (DC) or alternating-current (AC) motors. Machine Design has covered the ...

ServoTek Products Inc. announced the successful application of its TachSyn Series brushless DC tachometer/commutator within industrial motor speed monitoring applications. The high-accuracy TachSyn ...

Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is an efficient method for controlling the light intensity of a lamp or the speed of a simple DC motor. It lets you take advantage of the load's inertia by switching the ...
