Proper Selections of Motors

09/26/2010 1:20 AM

Sir, What are the parameter to select the proper motor rating for desired load ? and secondly the proper calculations of load , running as well as starting load ? Correlation between torque and load , what is safety level desired ?.and finally advantage and disadvantage between direct drive motors or gear driven motions ,please suggest .

I have some suggestions, but I don't think you'd like them.

You wait till redfred sees this. He is not a happy camper and has a bit more steam up his sleeve, I think.

<sigh>

If the motor is under-rated for the load, it will stall, and there will be a loss in the output from the process that the motor is driving. So the motor has to be rated at or over the load requirement.

Torque and load are related by the angular velocity of the drive shaft.

1.The load torque characteristic is the first parameter to consider (TL).

2.The second parameter is the speed of driven load(w)

3.Then once you know these two parameters,you can calculate the mechanical power output(Pmech) which will lead you to the select the desired motor.

4.The speed-torque characteristics of the driven load must be compatible with the speed-torque characteristics of motor.

5.Other parameters like ambient temp,protection level will be specified by manufacturer depending on where the motor is going to be installed.That is what I know from my little knowledge of Elec. Engineering
