Results for tag: "Switched Reluctance Motor"

The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is a type of electric motor that uses a combination of magnetic reluctance and switching of electric current to produce torque. It is a brushless motor, meaning it does not require any physical contact between the rotor and the stator to produce torque. SRMs are typically used in applications where high torque and low speed are required, such as in industrial automation, robotics, and aerospace. They are also used in automotive applications, such as in electric and hybrid vehicles. SRMs are typically more efficient than other types of motors, and they are also more reliable and require less maintenance. They are also more cost-effective than other types of motors, making them attractive for many applications. SRM technology is being developed by a number of companies, including ABB, Siemens, and Rockwell Automation. Other companies in the market include Kollmorgen, Maxon Motor, and Johnson Electric.
