Researchers at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory National Transportation Research Center have designed a ...

HIOKI recently announced the launch of the Impulse Winding Tester ST4030, which is the company’s first instrument to provide functionality for testing for defects in motor windings. HIOKI provides a ...

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 ...

Megohmmeters (meggers) are electrical meters used to check the resistance and condition of the motor windings and the condition of the refrigeration and oil environment around the motor windings. A ...

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, ...

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 without complex ...

(Nanowerk News) Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT) in Finland has constructed the world’s first prototype electrical motor using carbon nanotube yarn in the motor windings. The new technology ...

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 ...

California Linear Devices, Carlsbad, Calif., uses high-response windings to gain tight control and accuracy in their motors. They use series windings rather than a series-parallel wound coil. This ...

To meet the demand for drive motors / generators needed for hybrid vehicles, engineers at Remy International Inc. designed a line of off-the-shelf devices that are said to have the highest ...

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 ...
