ELECTRIC DRIVE TECHNOLOGY

This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the design and operation of electric drives. It demonstrates how drives can be optimized in terms of productivity, cost, installation space, and energy efficiency. Numerous illustrations and exercises clarify the material and reinforce the knowledge.

To facilitate entry into this complex field, the book begins by focusing on the requirements for electric drives and their main distinguishing features. The functions of individual components such as motors, mechanical transmission elements, and position measuring devices are described, fundamental relationships are established, and important terms related to product information are explained. The main section explains common motors used in production machine drives, such as DC, stepper, synchronous, and asynchronous motors. The section on servo drive technology presents fundamental concepts.

For the new edition, the textbook has been updated and expanded to include energy efficiency topics.

The practical and easily understandable structure enables readers to acquire or expand their knowledge in the field of electrical drive technology. The textbook is aimed at students of automation engineering, electrical engineering, medical engineering, mechatronics, mechanical engineering, and other related fields of study.
