Small Motor

Hopefully, we are living in a world that revolves all-around digital trends and technologies. Just flickering a switch will provide power and we find the operation of many devices through a simple motor. Many of the household and commercial devices are included with mini motors and these days they gain more prominence because of their simple design, streamlined operation, and many other features. So, this article completely describes the concepts related … [Read more...]

What is Hybrid Stepper Motor : Working & Its Applications

December 9, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

Hybrid Stepper Motor

As we all know that the main functionality of any motor is to convert electrical energy to mechanical energy, speed, and torque. So, the exceptional feature of stepper motors is they hold the ability to precisely managing control related to functional angle and speed. Let’s start with the concept of the stepper motor and then move ahead to know about the hybrid stepper motor. So, a stepper motor which is also termed as stepping motor comes under the … [Read more...]

What is Variable Reluctance Stepper Motor : Construction & Its Applications

November 21, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

Variable Reluctance Stepper Motor

A variable reluctance stepper motor is electromechanical energy which converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. The main difference between the stepper motor and other DC motors is in stepper motors the motion of the rotor is achieved in steps. Stepper motor also works on DC supply but the principle of operation is not Lorentz force law. It works on the principle of reluctance. That is, the magnetic flux always tries to follow in the least … [Read more...]

What is Synchronous Reluctance Motor : Working & Its Applications

November 13, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

Synchronous Reluctance Motor

Synchronous reluctance motor is an electromechanical energy conversion device that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. Unlike DC motor which works on Lorentz force law, synchronous reluctance motor works on the variable reluctance principle. The main characteristic of this motor is,  it runs at synchronous speed. Due to magnetic locking, it follows the synchronous speed of the rotating magnetic field which is formed at stator poles. Due to … [Read more...]

What is Switched Reluctance Motor : Construction & Its Applications

November 8, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

Switched Reluctance Motor

Switched reluctance motor is an electromechanical energy conversion device, which converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. As compared to DC motor where energy conversion takes place due to Lorentz Force Law, in switched reluctance motor the energy conversion takes place due to principles of variable reluctance. Reluctance is defined as the opposition to flow to the magnetic field. Its electrical equivalent is the resistance which opposes the flow … [Read more...]

Know the Differences between DC Shunt Motor & DC Shunt Generator

August 17, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

DC Shunt Motor and DC Shunt Generator

In the scope of electrical technology, a parallel circuit is described to be shunt. Direct current motors and generators where the armature and field windings are parallelly connected are termed as DC shunt motors and DC shunt generators. Fundamentally, a similar machine can be utilized as motors and generators. The foremost variation in between these devices is that in the DC shunt motor the input is of electrical energy and the output is mechanical … [Read more...]

August 7, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

PM Stepper Motor Diagram

In the industrial domain progression, motors hold a very crucial role and their application is enhancing day-by-day. Not only in the power industries, but in many control applications, motors are playing a critical role. With the enhancement of motor control, the usage and implementation also augment every year. So, the stepper motor is a kind of control motor which operates on positioning control having no feedback loop. Stepper motors were formed at the … [Read more...]

Differences between DC Series and Shunt Motors

July 10, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

DC Series And Shunt Motors

Before knowing about the differences between DC Series and Shunt Motors, let us start to know what a DC motor is. An electric motor that is powered up by direct current is termed as DC motor. In a detailed view, when a current-carrying conductor is positioned in the area of a certain magnetic field, it gains some torque and tends to have a moment. So, this is the same principle where a DC motor also works on. A DC motor is also named depending on the type … [Read more...]

What is a Stepper Motor – Construction, Operating Principle & Uses

June 19, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

It is a type of motor used for precise movements and positioning of objects mainly in milling machines. It is a brushless type synchronous motor and it is operated stepwise. This step-wise rotation is considered as the step angle. One step angle is the rotation of the shaft per one step. The step angle can be of different degrees depending upon the construction of the rotor and stator teeth. The brushless motor rotates the shaft 360 degrees per one … [Read more...]

What is Star Delta Starter : Circuit Diagram and Its Working

April 12, 2020 By Wat Electrical Leave a Comment

Star-Delta-Starter

The starting of an induction motor is associated with high inrush current (magnetizing and load). This inrush of current which maybe four to five times the full load current(FLC) of the motor poses problems in the supply system and the motor itself. In order to restrict the inrush of current suitable voltage reducing starting device is to be used. Star Delta starter being one such device. It may be added that with the improvement in the supply system and … [Read more...]
