ASYNCHRONOUS MOTORS

What is Asynchronous
Motor?
• An electric motor that works with
alternating current.
• This motor mainly works on the induced
current within the rotor from the rotary
magnetic field of the stator.
• In this motor design, the movement of the
rotor cannot be synchronized through the
moving stator field.

What is Asynchronous
Motor?
• This is the most common type of motor.
• Particularly, an asynchronous motor with 3-phase
is used in the industry due to the reasons like it is
a low cost, maintenance is easy and simple.
• Its performance is good compared with the
single-phase motor.
• The main feature of this motor is, the speed
cannot be changed. The operating speed of this
motor mainly depends on the frequency supply as
well as the no. of poles.

• In this motor can be activated through an
induced voltage from the rotating
