Identify the Type of Motor (Week 5)

• to identify electrical motor to move the direction of headlight

For this project I choose Servo motor to move the headlight. The advantages of the servo motor are 

1.  High output power relative to motor size and weight
2. Encoder determines accuracy and resolution
3. High efficiency. It can approach 90% at light loads.
4. High torque to inertia ratio. It can rapidly accelerate loads.
5. Has "reserve" power. 2-3 times continuous power for short periods.
6. Has "reserve" torque. 5-10 times rated torque for short periods.
7. Motor stays cool. Current draw proportional to load.
8. Usable high speed and torque. Maintains rated torque to 90% of NL RPM.
9. Audibly quiet at high speeds.
10. Resonance and vibration free operation.
