The conversation between human and AI assistant.
What is the difference between a DC motor, a servomotor, and a stepper motor?
Interesting. What are some common applications for each type of motor?
DC motors are commonly used in toys, robotics, and small appliances. Servomotors are used in robotics, industrial automation, and aerospace applications. Stepper motors are used in precision control systems, such as 3D printers and CNC machines. AC motors are used in household and industrial applications, such as fans, pumps, and compressors. Linear motors are used in transportation systems, such as maglev trains. Gearmotors are used in a wide range of applications, such as conveyors, elevators, and winches.
