We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Synchronous Motors",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release DaimlerChrysler places large drive order from
Control Techniques, which we summarised at the time by saying "Around 600 Control Techniques drives were used in the Vaneo production facility in Ludwigsfelde and production was optimised by direct communication between PLCs and the drives".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Geared servomotors offer large torque range from
Lenze: "The size of the MC servomotor range allows design engineers to exactly match the drive to the load and achieve optimum machine performance".
In May 2007, we covered the news from Vector Fields
concerning its Opera FEA software
- take a look at FEA creates motor models quickly
which says: "Design ideas can be trialled and optimised by varying the values of model parameters, or alternatively by means of an automatic optimisation tool".
Take a look also at the news release from Lenze, Motion controller helps machine stone,
as well as Torque transducers put motors on trial from Sensor Technology,
and Servo controllers are flexible about interfacing from Motor Technology.
