Introduction to Motor Constants for Fractional Horsepower Gearmotors

Introduction to Motor Constants for Fractional Horsepower Gearmotors

Motor constants are needed to calculate permanent magnet DC (PMDC) or brushless DC (BLDC or EC) motor specifications and ratings, or to match the motor properly to an amplifier. The motor constants are required in order to predict the PMDC or BLDC motor’s performance with changing variables, such as different input voltages or different loads. (See below PDF
