The Specific Accelerating Factor to Compare Brushless Motors

This work is focused on the analysis of the parameter named “accelerating factor” and on its use in choosing the correct electric brushless motor and gearbox in automation field. The “accelerating factor” is analyzed from a phenomenological point of view, analyzing data available on catalogs of motor manufacturers, and from the point of view of the design of such devices, trying to find a relationship between the accelerating factor and the construction parameters of a brushless motor.

The result achieved in this paper is the definition of a specific value of the accelerating factor allowing a better comparison between different motors and helping the designer in the choice of the best motor for a given application.
