Engineers at Nottingham University aim to design a drive that overcomes sensorless designs' inability to operate at zero or low speeds. With industrial partners TRW Automotive, Control Techniques, Smiths Aerospace Electronics and Power Electronic Measurements, they hope to develop drives for a variety of applications. Controlling AC motors that can change speed and torque quickly is essential for advanced industrial applications, from machine tools to large drives such as those in paper mills.
