NINGBO, ZHEJIANG, CHINA, January 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In recent years, the global DC motor industry has ...

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 ...

DC Motors were king in industry up until the late 1980s; These motors were popular because they were able to run to a variable speed setpoint, and they could run at full torque from stall to base ...

Zilog's Z16FMC Series of Flash microcontrollers are ideal for 3-phase and single-phase AC induction, permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs), and brushless DC motor control. These motors are ...

Special algorithms make ac induction motors respond like variable-speed dc motors for fast PID control. Synchronous dc motors often top the field in high-performance motor controls. This group of ...

Once the control method of choice only in high-performance industrial ac-servo drives, FOC (field-oriented control) is finding its way into lower end industrial and many appliance applications with ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...

When Tesla first introduced the 3-phase alternating current (AC) induction motor in 1888, he knew that his invention was more efficient and reliable than Edison's direct current (DC) motor. However, ...

For the PDF version of this article, click here. More than 80% of the motors bought each year continue to be low-cost single-phase ac motors. Because these motors are not very efficient when ...

AC induction motors are everywhere, from ceiling fans to vehicles. They’re reliable, simple, and rugged — but there are some disadvantages. It’s difficult to control the speed ...

I have been trying to fix a little old milling machine I bought (and here), and needed a replacement motor controller. It is a Clarke DCM10, a variant of Sieg’s X1, sometimes knows as a ‘micro mill’.
