Abstract
Applications of alternating current (AC) motors require precise speeds for control of certain processes such as synthetic fiber spinning, plastic sheet, films and glass manufacturing. Historically, the synchronous reluctance (SR) motor, with its aluminum die cast rotor, has served this need. In the past decade, selection of permanent magnet (PM) motors often yielded higher efficiencies and other performance advantages. Criteria for motor selection are presented.<>
