DC Compound Motor About

Industrial Electric Motors and Generators Menu
DC Motors Supplier

DC compound motors are desirable for a variety of applications because it combines the characteristics of a series-wound motor and a shunt-wound motor. The DC compound motor has a greater torque than a shunt motor due to the series field; however, it has a fairly constant speed due to the shunt field winding. Loads such as presses, shears, and reciprocating machines are often driven by compounded motors.
