Why use permanent magnet motors? - Fisher & Paykel Technologies

Benefits of PMSM motors
‍

High efficiency

This is particularly true at lower speeds. The permanent magnet motor does not require current to be supplied to its rotor to generate the rotor field, therefore eliminating the rotor losses almost completely. When compared to induction or reluctance motors it also requires lower currents on the stator and has a bigger power factor, leading to smaller current ratings on the controller, and increasing the overall drive system efficiency.

Windmax Power are exported all over the world and different industries with quality first. Our belief is to provide our customers with more and better high value-added products. Let's create a better future together.

Driving lower speeds at higher efficiency than an induction motor might delete the requirement of a speed reduction transmission, taking complexity out of the mechanical arrangement.  

Some battery electric vehicles (BEVs) utilise both motor technologies - one on the rear axle and the other on the front axle. Depending on the requirements, the more efficient system can provide propulsion power, or activate both at the same time for maximum power.


Constant torque

This type of motor can generate constant torque and maintain full torque at low speeds.

Size

The smaller size, lighter weight and less coil provide a higher power density.  

Cost-effective

With the absence of brushes, there are reduced maintenance costs.  

Minimal heat

In PMSM the heat is generated on the stator coils and there are no brushes and only minimum heat generated on the rotor, facilitating the cooling of the motor. As they run cooler than induction motors, the motor's reliability and lifespan is increased.

Speed range

This type of motor can have a wide speed range with the use of Field Weakening and can adopt the maximum torque/current (MTPA) control strategy during constant torque operation.

What applications use PMSM motors?
‍

Industries that use PMSM motors include Metallurgical, Ceramic, Rubber, Petroleum, Textiles, and many others. PMSM motors can be designed to operate at synchronous speed from a supply of constant voltage and frequency as well as Variable Speed Drive (VSD) applications. Widely used in electric vehicles (EVs) due to high efficiency and power and torque densities, they are generally a superior choice in high torque applications such as mixers, grinders, pumps, fans, blowers, conveyors, and industrial applications where traditionally induction motors are found.

Advantages and Applications of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor

The permanent magnet synchronous motor, referred to as PMSM, is actually an AC motor. Its stator runs with a three-phase difference alternating current, while its rotor is a permanent magnet. In this article, let's take a closer look at the advantages and applications of permanent magnet synchronous motor. Advantages and Applications of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor

The biggest advantage of this kind of motor is that the AC power is provided by DC so that the motor can be accurately controlled and the life problem caused by the brush is solved.

Permanent Magnet Motors vs Induction Motors

Four Advantages of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor:

  1. The motor is small in size and light in weight In recent years, with the continuous application of high-performance permanent magnet materials, the power density of permanent magnet synchronous motors has been greatly improved. The output torque of permanent magnet synchronous motors under the same volume is about 1.7 times that of induction motors.
  2. Wide speed range The permanent magnet synchronous motor based on the special structure design can adopt the maximum torque/current control strategy during constant torque operation and adopts the field weakening control strategy during constant power operation, which can obtain good speed regulation operation characteristics, and successfully achieved over 5 times the field weakening speed range.
  3. Small moment of inertia, high acceleration can be obtained, and good dynamic performance
  4. Large overload capacity The rotor of a permanent magnet synchronous motor has no slippage. When rigid processing is carried out, there will be no surface effect processing abnormality caused by speed fluctuation.

Applications of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor

Permanent magnet synchronous motors have the advantages of simple structure, small size, high efficiency, and high power factor. It has been widely used in the metallurgical industry (ironmaking plant and sintering plant, etc.), ceramic industry (ball mill), rubber industry (internal mixer), petroleum industry (pumping unit), textile industry (double twist machine, spinning frame) and other industries in the medium and low voltage motor.
