Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are different types of Synchronous Motor

Both non-excited and DC-excited synchronous motors are types of synchronous motors, but they differ in their rotor construction and method of excitation. Also known as a "permanent magnet synchronous motor" (PMSM), the non-excited type of motor has a rotor that contains permanent magnets. The permanent magnets generate a constant magnetic field on the rotor, eliminating the need for any external excitation. High efficiency & low maintenance due to the absence of excitation losses. A DC excited synchronous motor has a rotor with windings, which are supplied with DC current from an external source. The DC current flowing through the rotor windings creates a magnetic field, which synchronises with the rotating magnetic field of the stator. Precise speed control due to the ability to adjust the DC current supplied to the rotor windings.

What is the difference between Synchronous Motor and Asynchronous Motor?

Synchronous motors have a fixed synchronous speed which means the rotor speed is synchronised with the rotatory magnetic field of the stator winding, while asynchronous motors have a speed that varies with the load and rotor speed is not synchronised with the rotatory magnetic field of the stator winding. Synchronous motors are used in applications where precise speed control is required. On the other hand, Asynchronous motors are widely used in various industrial and commercial applications due to their simple design, robustness, and ability to handle variable speed loads.

Where are miniature Synchronous Motors used?

Miniature synchronous motors find applications in various industries and devices where precise control, compact size, and synchronous operation are essential. These miniature synchronous motors are chosen for their accurate speed control, low noise, and compact design. The use of miniature synchronous motors can enhance the performance and efficiency of the devices they are integrated into. Some common uses of miniature synchronous motors include timing applications such as in synchronous clocks, timers in appliances, tape recorders and precision servomechanisms. Other examples include camera autofocus mechanism, optical disc drives, printers and scanners, small fans, cooling systems, electric shavers, etc.

What is the Duty Cycle in Synchronous Motor?

In the context of a synchronous motor, the duty cycle refers to the ratio of the motor's operating time to its total cycle time over a specific period. It is commonly expressed as a percentage and represents the amount of time the motor operates at full load or a specific load condition compared to the total time. For example, if a synchronous motor operates at its full load for 60% of the time and remains idle for the other 40%, the duty cycle would be 60%. This means that the motor is subjected to a load for half of the operating cycle and remains unutilized for the other half.

Is synchronous motor AC or DC?

A synchronous motor can be both AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current) depending on the type of power supply used.

What is the main difference between a synchronous motor and an induction motor?

The main difference is in their speed of operation. A synchronous motor operates at a constant speed, while an induction motor operates at a slightly lower speed.
