Motor classification
Motors can be classified in various ways, mainly including the following:
Divided by the type of working power supply:
DC motor
AC machine
Divided by structure and working principle:
DC motor
asynchronous motor
synchronous motor
Divided by purpose:
drive motor
Control motor
Divided by operating speed:
high speed motor
low speed motor
constant speed motor
Variable speed motor
Other classification methods:
stepping motor
servo motor
Special purpose motors such as linear motors, ultrasonic motors, etc
Each classification method has its specific application scenarios and advantages. For example, DC motors are commonly used in applications that require high precision and speed regulation performance, while AC motors are widely used in various industrial and civilian equipment due to their simple structure and low manufacturing difficulty. Stepper motors and servo motors are widely used in automation control systems and precision positioning applications.
It is recommended to consider the above classification methods comprehensively based on specific application requirements and performance indicators when selecting motors, in order to choose the most suitable motor type.
