Motor Drives & Controls
Enhancing regulating function through electronic material capability
Motor drives and controllers regulate motor torque and speed based on application demand and are vital to raising the efficiency of electric motors. The use of a motor drive, such as a variable frequency drive, can reduce motor energy consumption by as much as 70%, according to some estimates. These important motor control connection systems are, like most electronic devices, increasingly complex and they rely on components such as powerful IGBTs and MOSFETs which help motor drives manage bi-directional power conversion to align power delivery with demand, significantly improving motor efficiency. Because of greater functionality and higher power densities, the critical components within motor drives depend on advanced materials to ensure high-performance reliability by eliminating heat and providing environmental protection.
