In today's fast pace industry, there are many pieces of equipment that rely on operating at different speeds for different processes.  When the process demands a varying of speed, that is where the variable speed drive comes into play.  If the output speed on a piece of equipment can be changed, this is referred to as variable speed drive.  A variable speed drive can be mechanical, hydraulic, electromechanical or simply electronic.  You may also hear the variable speed drive called an adjustable speed drive.

Variable Speed DriveA variable frequency drive will refer to alternating current (AC) drives alone but a variable speed drive refers to both the AC drive or DC (direct current) drive as well.  When the variable speed drive is used only on an AC drive, we call it the variable speed AC drive but always remember that it can also be used with a DC current. Using the variable speed drive AC drive is known to save money with your operating costs.  When the motor speed is reduced, less energy is consumed, therefore reducing your electric bill.

Since motor speed control can be an issue with any equipment, the variable speed drive has become rather popular in the industry today. No other DC or AC motor control method will compare to a variable speed drive when it comes to accurate motor speed control.  The variable speed drive can be programmed to operate motor speed control at an exact speed, to stop it in a precise position or can apply a specific amount of torque to the motor speed control.

An inverter motor is one that you would use if you needed the motor to operate at very low speeds which would be controlled with a variable speed drive.  A servo motor is one that has a three wire DC motor, a gear train, a potentiometer, an integrated circuit and an output shaft bearing.  The servo motor is a three phase induction motor.  There are several variable speed drives that can be used with the servo motor.  The frequency drive is a device that is used for controlling the rotational speed of an AC motor.  The frequency drive regulates the power that is being delivered.    

When selecting a good quality variable speed drive you will want to do some research on them.  There are several makes and brands and models to choose from like AAB drives, Yaskawa drives, WEG variable speed drives and Baldor variable speed drives.  The place to find these quality variable speed drives is through a company called TEMCo.  They are one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of variable speed drives in the industry today.  TEMCo has been solving variable speed drive solutions for more than 40 years and stand behind each and every product by offering an excellent warranty.  You will find the most reasonable prices around from TEMCo on all of their products.
