What is an Electric Motor? Types of Electric Motors | CM Industry Supply Automation
For converting electrical energy into mechanical energy we generally use an electric motor that generally refers to an electric machine. The majority of electric motors work through the interaction between the magnetic field of the motor and electric current in a wire winding. This interaction creates a force in the form of torque, which is applied to the shaft of the motor. DC (Direct current (DC) sources like batteries or rectifiers or AC (alternating current) sources like inverters, power grids, or electric generators generally powered electric motors. Motors are the main reason behind the new technologies we are enjoying today. Electric motors are generally found in fans, air conditioning, cars, power tools, trains, disk drives, household appliances, and much more. Even we found some small motors in electric watches. Types of Electric Motors Nowadays, electric motors become more miscellaneous and adaptable. When we plan a motion control system, we need to make the ri
