Torque Motor
Reuland Electric torque motors are induction motors designed
for applications which require occasional or prolonged stall, or controlled
applications nearly stalled. The basic difference between a torque motor
and a standard induction motor is in the shape of the speed torque curve
and thermal capacity to withstand locked rotor currents. Torque motors
are rated at locked rotor torque (inch pounds or foot pounds) where standard
motors are rated in horsepower.
