The generation of motors today are increasingly developed through electronic controls which offers better control over speed, position and torque with greater efficiency. The MOSFETs and IGBT are used ...

For automating machines that require only two to three axes of electric actuators, pulse outputs may be the simplest way to go. Using pulse outputs from a PLC is a cost-effective way to get simple ...

This webinar is a beginner’s course to help system designers understand the fundamentals of motor control circuitry and common control schemes. This webinar is a beginner’s course to help system ...

This fall, the SMMA Motor & Motion College will offer three motor control courses. Topics to be covered include the Basics of Brushless DC Motors, Basic Motor Theory, Operation and Application, and ...

Stepper motors produce accurate, computer-controlled motion for applications such as robotic arms and paper-feed mechanisms for printers. They require current pulses delivered through a special ...

SAKOR Technologies has introduced the DynoLAB LT, a low-cost, complete turnkey system for electric motor testing. DynoLAB LT offers the test control and data acquisition capabilities required for ...

Each motor branch circuit must be protected against short circuit and ground faults by an overcurrent device sized no greater than the percentages listed in Table 430.52. A branch-circuit ...

Overload devices protect motors, motor control equipment, and motor branch-circuit conductors against excessive heating due to motor overloads and failure to start, but not against overcurrent (e.g., ...
