Injected Copper Rotor Bars

03/16/2011 11:57 AM

A while a go there was a thread about injected aluminium rotor bars as opposed to copper with end rings. I've looked for the thread but can't find it.

I've just found this, injected copper.

No, that's not it. It was about squirrel cage rotors not using copper for the rotor bars.

Earlier they used aluminium die cast bars for rotor.Now due to advanced technology copper is used.
