What are the differences between ac servomotor and dc servomotors?
AC servomotors require an alternating current as a power source, meaning they need to be plugged into an outlet, while DC servomotors require a direct current as a power source, meaning they can be run off of battery power.
What is the difference between current (DC) and alternating current (AC)?
ac comes directly from the power socket, and DC is battery source. Answer2: The frequency is the difference, AC has frequency f>0 and DC does not f=0.
