In order to select the best AC drives for a given AC motor, a complete analysis of application categories is required.  Multi-axis controllers are used to control and monitor multiple, independent axes of motion.  Motor speed controllers are application-specific and used to control machines such as conveyors.  Digital motion control hardware and software for the [...]

AC drives are somewhat different in terms of a number of factors, which include electrical ratings, operating parameters, configurations, and features.  Electrical ratings include maximum output voltage, rated power, continuous output current, peak output current, AC supply voltage, and DC supply voltage.  AC drives use either single-phase or three-phase inputs at 50, 60, or 400 [...]
