This week’s PdMA tip: DC Drives
Did you know that DC Drive reliability is a major factor in the production of your automotive tires? A DC drive is designed to supply Direct Current (DC) to a DC Motor.
However, with a failing front end of the DC drive, more of an AC signal can be delivered resulting in high vibration, elevated temperature, poor operation and reduced life expectancy of the drive and motor.
Without performing the correct analysis, the wrong decision might be to replace the DC motor.
