With the goal of reducing reluctance torque, the Series 14000 brush-commutated, dc and gear motors employ 11-slot skewed armatures that promise to minimize magnetic cogging. The dc motors are ...

Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) technology represents a significant advancement in the field of electric machines. Distinguished by its simple construction, cost-effectiveness and robust design, SRMs ...

The trend in the automotive industry is to replace mechanically actuated systems with systems based on electric motor technology. The traditional brushed dc motor is not suitable for many of these ...

All the motors produce either interaction torque, reluctance torque or a combination of both. The second article in this series discussed the underlying principles common to all motors. As we have ...

A special type of brushless motor is called a limited-angle torquer (LAT). LATs are constrained to produce torque through a rotation angle of less than 180°. But they are widely used to operate ...
