MotorSolve BLDC
DESIGN SOFTWARE FOR BRUSHLESS DC & PMAC MACHINES
PREDICTING PERFORMANCE FOR BETTER DESIGNS
MotorSolve BLDC, our electric motor design software for brushless dc and permanent magnet AC machines, combines easy-to-use templates with an automated-FEA solver to calculate performance.
Most modern electric motors do not adhere to the rules of thumb and general approximations used by designers for decades. Meeting the growing demand for higher efficiency & lower costs requires software that delivers reliable results and does not give false predictions for crucial performance factors resulting in avoidable and costly complications. Only FEA simulations:
- Predict performance properly when there is saturation
- Account for all sources of loss such as eddy current and hysteresis
