Combining the advantages of permanent magnet and induction motors, new synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM) offer potentially breakthrough technology for variable speed drive (VSD) and motor packages ...

The joint venture Astemo, a collaboration between Hitachi and Honda, has developed a new motor for battery-electric vehicles ...

A synchronous and synchronous motors are the two main categories of ac motors. The induction motor is a common form of asynchronous motor and is basically an ac transformer with a rotating secondary.

A Japanese joint venture between Hitachi, Honda and JIC Capital, has developed an electric motor for electric vehicles based ...

Early incarnations of the electric motor first appeared in the 1740s through the work of Scottish Benedictine monk and scientist, Andrew Gordon. Other scientists such as Michael Faraday and Joseph ...

Although an increasing interest and use of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) can be observed during the last decade, the standard 3-phase Induction Motor (IM) is still the most widely used ...

Nidec Corporation (TSE: 6594; OTC US: NJDCY) (the “Company” or “Nidec”) announced today that it has launched for the US market SynRA (Synchronous Reluctance Motor with Aluminum Cage Rotor), the ...

Since AC induction motors have been established as the preferred choice for industrial motors and the need for reduced power in all aspects of design is ever present, the efficiency of these motors is ...

With the new Model Option Electric Motor, Vector has added a powerful function to the CANoe test environment since Release 19. Control units for electric motors (MCUs) can now be tested out-of-the-box ...
