Low Speed High Torque AC Magnet Electric Motors

Differences Between The Permanent Magnet Motor And Asynchronous Motor

01. Rotor Structure

Asynchronous motor: The rotor consists of an iron core and a winding, mainly squirrel-cage and wire-wound rotors. A squirrel-cage rotor is cast with aluminum bars. The magnetic field of the aluminum bar cutting the stator drives the rotor.

PMSM Motor: The permanent magnets are embedded in the rotor magnetic poles, and are driven to rotate by the rotating magnetic field generated in the stator according to the principle of magnetic poles of the same phase attracting different repulsions.

02. Efficiency

Asynchronous motors: Need to absorb current from the grid excitation, resulting in a certain amount of energy loss, motor reactive current, and low power factor.

PMSM Motor: The magnetic field is provided by permanent magnets, the rotor does not need exciting current, and the motor efficiency is improved.

03. Volume And Weight

The use of high-performance permanent magnet materials makes the air gap magnetic field of permanent magnet synchronous motors larger than that of asynchronous motors. The size and weight are reduced compared to asynchronous motors. It will be one or two frame sizes lower than asynchronous motors.

04. Motor Starting Current

Asynchronous motor: It is directly started by power frequency electricity, and the starting current is large, which can reach 5 to 7 times the rated current, which has a great impact on the power grid in an instant. The large starting current causes the leakage resistance voltage drop of the stator winding to increase, and the starting torque is small so heavy-duty starting cannot be achieved. Even if the inverter is used, it can only start within the rated output current range.

PMSM Motor: It is driven by a dedicated controller, which lacks the rated output requirements of the reducer. The actual starting current is small, the current is gradually increased according to the load, and the starting torque is large.

05. Power Factor

Asynchronous motors have a low power factor, they must absorb a large amount of reactive current from the power grid, the large starting current of asynchronous motors will cause a short-term impact on the power grid, and long-term use will cause certain damage to the power grid equipment and transformers. It is necessary to add power compensation units and perform reactive power compensation to ensure the quality of the power grid and increase the cost of equipment use.

There is no induced current in the rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor, and the power factor of the motor is high, which improves the quality factor of the power grid and eliminates the need to install a compensator.

06. Maintenance

Asynchronous motor + reducer structure will generate vibration, heat, high failure rate, large lubricant consumption, and high manual maintenance cost; it will cause certain downtime losses.

The three-phase Permanent magnet synchronous motor drives the equipment directly. Because the reducer is eliminated, the motor output speed is low, mechanical noise is low, mechanical vibration is small, and the failure rate is low. The entire drive system is almost maintenance-free.

Features

It adopts a standard fully enclosed structure that can meet stable operation under a variety of harsh working conditions.

The actual margin of the motor is sufficient to ensure the reliable operation of the motor at full load with low-temperature rise.

Its efficient operation range is wide and the efficiency is more than 90% in the range of 25%~120%. The efficiency is higher than lever 1 of GB30253-2013.

Small volume, high output power, and high efficiency.

Application:

Permanent magnet synchronous motors can be combined with frequency converters to form the best open-loop step-less speed control system, which has been widely used for speed control transmission equipment in petrochemical, chemical fiber, textile, machinery, electronics, glass, rubber, packaging, printing, paper making, printing and dyeing, metallurgy and other industries.

Why choose permanent magnet ac motors?

Permanent magnet AC (PMAC) motors offer several advantages over other types of motors, including:

High Efficiency: PMAC motors are highly efficient due to the absence of rotor copper losses and reduced winding losses. They can achieve efficiencies of up to 97%, resulting in significant energy savings.

High Power Density: PMAC motors have a higher power density compared to other motor types, which means they can produce more power per unit of size and weight. This makes them ideal for applications where space is limited.

High Torque Density: PMAC motors have a high torque density, which means they can produce more torque per unit of size and weight. This makes them ideal for applications where high torque is required.

Reduced Maintenance: Since PMAC motors have no brushes, they require less maintenance and have a longer lifespan than other motor types.

Improved Control: PMAC motors have better speed and torque control compared to other motor types, making them ideal for applications where precise control is required.

Environmentally Friendly: PMAC motors are more environmentally friendly than other motor types since they use rare earth metals, which are easier to recycle and produce less waste compared to other motor types.

Overall, the advantages of PMAC motors make them an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, including electric vehicles, industrial machinery, and renewable energy systems.
