An electric motor uses electromagnetic phenomena to convert electrical energy to mechanical energy. Electric motors are used in various applications, from powering industrial machinery and appliances to driving electric vehicles. They are used in robotics, automation systems, and home appliances such as washing machines and vacuum cleaners. Increasing automation of industries and the high use of HVAC increase the adoption of electric motors. Recent years have also seen the expansion of non-traditional motor technologies such as brushless DC (BLDC) motors and switched to reluctance motors offering higher energy efficiency than traditional AC induction motors. However, technical limitations of their operations and strict regulatory standards for product quality impede electric motor usage. Market players are constantly working on R&D activities to improve the quality of electric motors while introducing new smart motors to remain competitive in the market. Government initiatives for energy efficiency have also given rise to energy-efficient motors.
Motor Type: Potential demand for AC motors owing to their cost-effectiveness with the ability to supply ample power
AC motors are used in many applications, including refrigerators, air conditioners, pumps, compressors, and industrial machinery. AC electric motors come in various sizes, ranging from small fractional horsepower motors to large industrial types used for heavy machinery. Induction motors are the most common AC motors due to their cost-effectiveness and robustness and are widely used in HVAC systems, home appliances, and industrial machinery applications. Synchronous motors offer precise speed control and enhanced power factor correction capabilities. DC motors are powered by direct current (DC) to effectively and efficiently convert electrical energy into mechanical power. Many applications, such as automobiles, consumer electronics, robotics, medical equipment, elevators, and conveyor belts, use DC power. A self-excited DC motor is a direct current (DC) electric motor that generates its internal magnetic field for operation. A separately excited DC (Direct Current) Motor is an electric motor where the field winding and armature winding are supplied with independent or separate excitation voltage sources. AC motors are normally more effective than DC motors, providing higher torque using a more powerful current. However, DC motors are usually more efficient and make better use of their input energy.
Component: Bearings provide smooth rotation and minimize friction between moving parts
The rotor of an electric motor is a cylindrical core made from iron laminates wound with copper wire. It is the rotating component of the motor and spins when supplied with electric current. Bearings are components that hold the rotor in place and allow it to spin freely without damaging other parts of the motor. The stator is usually a stationary part of the electric motor, which consists of thin metal sheets densely packed with windings. These windings can be made from either copper or aluminum and act as magnets when an electric current is passed through them. Commutators are mechanisms that use brushes to help regulate the direction of current flow in the rotor winding, thus providing a unidirectional torque output from the motor.
Voltage: Extensive adoption of high-voltage motors in heavy-duty operations
Low-voltage motors are typically used in home appliances and other small electronic devices. These motors are preferred for their compact size, energy efficiency, ease of installation and supervision, and lower capital costs than higher voltage counterparts. Medium voltage motors are usually used in industrial or commercial applications, and these motors require greater insulation than their low voltage counterparts and reliable cooling systems. High-voltage motors can generate considerable torque, making them ideal for power plants, oil & gas industries, or other industrial applications requiring high energy output. Due to the increased voltages, high-voltage motors need robust insulation materials such as varnishes or resins, which protect electrical arcs or sparks generated within the motor’s components.
Output Power: Penetration of 1 HP and above output power owing to its increasing use across various heavy-duty industrial applications
1 HP and above electric motors are used in tractors, other agricultural equipment, and high-power tools and appliances, such as table saws and pool pumps. Electric motors with less than 1 HP are utilized in wet grinders, surgical pumps, paint mixers, vacuum pumps, needle vibrators, and lawn mowers. These motors have low vibration, which helps expand the motor’s durability and reliability, and have sturdy motor construction, which assists in operating it in any environmental condition.
End-User: Proliferating demand for electric motors in the transportation industry
Electric motors are utilized in various residential applications, from controlling the speed of a ceiling fan to providing power for air conditioners and refrigerators. They are also widely used in home automation systems, powering garage doors, robotic vacuums, pool pumps, and security systems. In commercial settings, electric motors can power escalators in retail malls and maintain HVAC systems in large buildings. Standardized motors offer appropriate mechanical energy for industrial use for powering pumps and compressors, driving conveyor belts and assembly line operations, and operating turbines and motors for power generation. Electric motors, including trucks, buses, and cars, have become increasingly important in transportation systems. With the accelerating demand for electric vehicles, electric motors are expected to witness high growth in the transportation industry.
