The electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The most common electric motors we encounter today – almost everywhere are INDUCTION ELECTRIC MOTORS. Electric motors are divided into several groups based on construction, use, mounting method, and more. The electric motors in our offer have a modular housing, which means that depending on the method and work requirements, we can choose an electric motor from an ALU housing (lower power) or cast iron (higher power). When selecting electric motors, we can choose from various flanges needed for installation, so-called flanges B3, B5, B14. The mounting feet are also modular, meaning they can be removed if not needed. Electric motors are indispensable elements increasingly in agriculture, industry, powering various machines, devices, aggregates, and more.
Step 1, how to choose the appropriate electric motor from all the variants offered on the market is to first determine whether we need single-phase electric motors (230V) or three-phase electric motors (400V). If we are interested in wood cutting, we choose electric motors for circular saws, but we must be careful between single-phase electric motors for circular saws (230V) and three-phase electric motors for circular saws (400V).
As we know, the choice of electric motors depends on the rated voltage and mounting. We know the following designs:
- Single-phase electric motors with flange B3 are classic electric motors with feet, with a voltage of 230V.
- Three-phase electric motors with flange B3 are classic electric motors with feet, with a voltage of 400V.
