The idea of winding inductive guitar pickups by hand is almost unthinkable. It uses extremely thin wire and is a repetitive, laborious process that nevertheless requires a certain amount of precision.

Lucid Group has been granted a patent for an electric motor design with a unique winding pattern. The motor features conductors forming three balanced paths through slots, with each path undergoing ...

Small and medium AC induction motors account for more than 75% of motor electrical energy demand; however, they typically receive less maintenance than their larger counterparts. This leaves them ...

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 ...

(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 ...

In the first installment of this series, "Calculating a practical hotspot safety margin", we discussed how two-parameter thermal models assume that the entire motor, including windings, exhibits one ...

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 ...
