AC motors are widely used power sources in modern industry. According to different classification standards, AC motors can be divided into many types, each type has unique characteristics and application scenarios.

Asynchronous Motors:
Asynchronous motors are the most common type of AC motor. Its rotor speed is lower than the synchronous speed, and torque is generated by the interaction between the rotating magnetic field generated by the stator winding and the induced current in the rotor winding.
Features: Simple structure, low cost, easy maintenance, widely used in various industrial equipment and household appliances.

Synchronous motor:
The rotor speed of a synchronous motor is synchronized with the rotating magnetic field generated by the stator winding. It is usually used in applications that require high speed accuracy, such as generators and clock drives.
Features: stable speed, adjustable power factor, high efficiency, but the cost is relatively high.

Induction motor:
Induction motor, also called asynchronous motor, works based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Induction motors are widely used in industrial production and daily life.
Features: Strong and durable structure, suitable for high-power driving.

Permanent magnet synchronous motor:
The rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor uses permanent magnets, which has the characteristics of high efficiency, high power density and high torque output.
Features: high efficiency, low energy consumption, often used in new energy vehicles, wind power generation and other fields.

Single-phase AC motor:
Single-phase AC motor is used in single-phase power supply applications, such as washing machines and electric fans in household appliances.
Features: Simple structure, low price, but low power.

Three-Phase AC Motors:
Three-phase AC motors are commonly used in high-power industrial applications such as manufacturing, water pumps and compressors, etc.
Features: large output power and stable operation.
