What is the best type of DC motor for use with DC?

Basically anything that works with batteries usually works with DC motors, i.g. your hard drive, your cellphone vibrator, toys, etc. Also, even for large motors, the DC motor has the advantage of being easily controlled by input voltage. Induction motors, on the other hand, can use controlled input voltage but they will have to deal wth low torque when the voltage is low. DC motors are used for those little fans in your computer. Also, CD players also use DC motors to spin the discs. DC motors are important where absolute speed control and feedback are necessary. For your household appliances, including fan motors, those are AC motors, cheaper for the industrial strength and more efficient.


Why DC motors and DC generators are commonly known as DC machines?

because the dc motor will act as dc generator as same as dc generator acts as a dc motor .so it is called as dc machines.AnswerBecause generators and motors are machines, and operate on d.c.'A.C. machines' are generators, transformers, and motors which operate on a.c.


Why use dc motor not stepper motor in robot?

DC motors use PWM (pulse width modulation), which can easily increase or decrease the power to the motor, thereby increasing or decreasing the motor speed by modulating the width of the pulse. Stepper motors have fixed frequencies, thereby having fixed motor speeds. As a result, the speed of the stepper motor cannot be controlled when the load is increased.


Why do we connect a transistor to a DC motor?

Transistors are not normally connected to dc motors, but it is possible to use transistors in a speed-control mechanism for a motor.


What is the difference between servo motor and dc motor?

DC motor : -DC (Direct Current) Motors are two wire (power & ground), continuous rotation motors. -The speed of DC motors is controlled using pulse width modulation (PWM), a technique of rapidly pulsing the power on and off. The percentage of time spent cycling the on/off ratio determines the speed of the motor, e.g. if the power is cycled at 50% (half on, half off), then the motor will spin at half the speed of 100% (fully on). Each pulse is so rapid that the motor appears to be continuously spinning with no stuttering. Servo Motor : -Servo motors are generally an assembly of four things: a DC motor, a gearing set, a control circuit and a position-sensor (usually a potentiometer). -The position of servo motors can be controlled more precisely than those of standard DC motors, and they usually have three wires (power, ground &). Power to servo motors is constantly applied, with the servo control circuit regulating the draw to drive the motor. -PWM is used for the control signal of servo motors. However, unlike DC motors it's the duration of the positive pulse that determines the position, rather than speed, of the servo shaft.

Where do you find dc motors?

Examples of DC electric motors are the starter in your car and the motor in a DC controlled elevator, to name just two.


Does DC motor run at a varying speed?

only shunt dc motors have varaible speed control. compound dc motors do however NT as much, plus they are just a mixture of series and shunt dc motors.


Speed of DC Motor can be controlled by a frequency variable?

by using a frequency tuner in input we can change input frequency and in this way speed of dc motor will also vary. <<>> Varying the frequency (VFD) only works on AC motors.

Can DC motor runat sysnchronous speed?

No they don't. A rotating magnetic flux is required which the dc motors cannot attain.
