Abstract

It is not desirable to use electric machines with high inertia rotors for servo drives, ultra-high-speed non-energy-storage drives, and drives with frequent starts and stops. This paper introduces the design considerations of low-inertia, composite or light metal, axial-gap, permanent-magnet motor and its control. Tests were conducted on a composite-rotor prototype motor.
