What Are AC and DC Motors?
While both are essentially electrically powered mechanisms that keep a larger machine operating, AC and DC motors do have some key differences. The largest differentiator between them is that AC motors operate using alternating current, and DC motors operate on direct current.
DC Motors
Direct current motors are highly reliable, and they offer more straightforward installation and maintenance. When it comes to operation, they deliver higher startup torque and power as well. They respond quickly to acceleration, starting and stopping, and they have versatile applications in numerous fields. From industrial machinery to washing machines, DC motors run many of the most commonly used appliances in the modern world.
AC Motors
AC motors tend to deliver more power for applications and have a low startup power requirement, which effectively protects their components. AC motors are the more common variety in industrial settings, and many companies prefer them because they allow for advanced control of speed and torque. From pharmaceuticals to food and beverage processing to industrial plants, AC motors keep many applications running.
