INDUCTION MOTORS

Constant Torque applications


l Steel mills machines, Paper machines (winder, tension reels, mill stands) l Cement mills, rubber mills, mixers, crushers l Conveyors l Cranes and elevators cars

Variable Torque applications:


l Centrifugal pumps l Centrifugal fans l Compressors

Uses:--> Synchronous motors find applications in all industrial applications where constant speed is necessary. Improving the power factor as Synchronous condensers. Electrical power plants almost always use synchronous generators because it is important to keep the frequency constant at which the generator is connected. Low power applications include positioning machines, where high precision is required, and robot actuators. Mains synchronous motors are used for electric clocks. Record player turntables
