Eddy Current Drives

Eddy current drives are highly reliable forms of electronic adjustable speed drives characterized by near-zero maintenance and noise immunity. EDDY CURRENT DRIVE is a combination of a constant speed AC induction motor, coupled to an eddy current clutch.

Quick info

Description

Dynaspede series of eddy current drives forms a family of AC adjustable speed drives, offered as a cost effective solution to almost every industrial application requiring accurate, easily controllable, infinitely variable speed from an AC power source. These high torque, low inertia eddy current drives are mated with a variety of electronic feedback control options for precise control of machine speed or torque in single or multiple motor applications. EDDY CURRENT DRIVE is a combination of a constant speed AC induction motor, coupled to an eddy current clutch. The function of an eddy current clutch is to transmit a controlled torque from the induction motor,(prime mover) to the load (driven machine). The medium of torque transmission is a controlled magnetic field, generated by a stationary field coil. A thyristor based electronic controller is used to convert a relatively small amount of AC power into a DC power in order to excite the field coil.
