Kollmorgen, a subsidiary of Danaher Corp, manufactures the 24V, 300WBLDC (brushless-dc) motor in India. A true BLDC motor, it hasHall-effect sensors that feed back the rotor position to the ...

Running a brushed motor in muddy or dusty environments takes a toll on controllers, with both heavy back EMF and high stall currents. This explains one of the challenge in Europe’s Hacky Racer series, ...

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...
