Essential Maintenance for Variable Frequency Drives: Ensuring Optimal Performance
Essential Maintenance for Variable Frequency Drives: Ensuring Optimal Performance What is a VFD, and Why It Matters A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) is a device that controls the speed and torque of electric motors by using rectification, The drive converts incoming power into a square wave form using PMW (Pulse, Width, Modulation) to control speed and torque (Hz, Current). VFDs have become a vital component in industrial systems such as: Manufacturing and production lines…
