Hi all,
I'm dealing with an application that, even though it is not sophisticated, is new for me. Excuse my ignorance!!!
I have an exiting conveyor that has a 1 hp DC motor. The new use for this conveyor is to be starting and stopping very frequently. It can be stopped as short as 2 seconds and then running as short as 1 second. The motor will be operated by a drive to control speed.
Is a DC motor suitable for this frequent start/stop application? Otherwise, what would be the best approach?
Thank you!
