We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Variable Speed Motor",
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 20 years supplying drives and controls from
Newton Tesla (Electric Drives), which we summarised at the time by saying "Newton Tesla (Electric Drives) was started up in 1987 by husband and wife team, George and Janet Newton".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Motion and control partnership announced. from
Parker Hannifin - SSD: "Parkem MotionControl will be promoting Parker SSD Drives' extensive range of ac, dc and servo drives and extending its technical and customer support for variable speed motor control applications".
In January 2007, we covered the news from Parker Hannifin - SSD
concerning its 650 and 650V series
- take a look at AC drives add Profibus networking
which says: "Profibus options allow drives to be networked as decentralised peripherals (DP) in a wide range of variable speed motor control applications".
Take a look also at the news release from Contax, Valve automates two-component dispensing,
as well as Test tools come with ATEX certification from Fluke (UK),
and Current transducers get the measure of AC from Power Electronic Measurements.
