Electric motor

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

The reverse of this is the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy and is done by an electric generator, which has much in common with a motor.

Most electric motors operate through the interaction between its magnetic field and winding currents to generate force.

Types of electric motor

The main types are DC motors and AC motors.

AC electric motors are either synchronous or Asynchronous (also called induction motors).

There are 02 types of induction motors. E.g. single phase (capacitor split) and three-phase motors.

Motor Applications

Synchronous motor:

• in all industrial applications where constant speed is necessary.
• Improving the power factor as Synchronous condensers.
• used even in high precision positioning devices like modern robots, ammonia, and air compressors, continuous rolling mills, paper, and cement industries.

an induction motor is used for low and medium power drives where speed control is not required as for water pumps, tube wells, lathes, drills, grinders, fans, blowers, and compressors etc.

Dc motors are used for heavy-duty applications such as electric locomotives, steel rolling mills, lifts and cranes, lathes, vacuum cleaners etc.
