The First Maker-Friendly Guide to Electric Motors!Makers can do amazing things with motors. Making.First, Matthew Scarpino explains how electric motors work and what you need to know about each major type: stepper, servo, induction, and linear motors. All source code and design files are available for you to download from motorsformakers.From start to finish, you’ll learn through practical examples, crystal-clear explanations, and photos. Once you do, incredible new projects become possible. Yes, they’re more complicated than some other circuit elements, but with this book, you can completely master them. If you’ve ever dreamed of what you could do with electric motors, stop dreamingand start making!Understand why electric motors are so versatile and how they workChoose the right motor for any projectBuild the circuits needed to c
You won't regret this purchase! I'm a sophmore Mechanical Engineering student who was assigned a project which required a solid basic understanding of electric motors and their control. This book has been a Godsend! All the desired practicality, without the clutter of theory so you can implement projects quickly and safely! Chapter 5 may be scary for those who are squeamish when it comes to math (laplace transforms) but those without an engineering background can skip that chapter without serious detriments. Scarpino did an excellent job with this text!. Excellent book This is the best book on electric motors that I have ever seen (I am an Electrical Engineer). If ever you want to use an electric motor for anything please purchase this book, you will not be disappointed. I wish this book had been written decades ago. It is sure to be a best seller.. A nice and practical introduction to using motors in your personnal projects From the description I was expecting a more thorough reference, but it's probably my own fault for expecting something that the book was not really.However, this little book contains a lot of very useful and practical information about motors and how to interface and control them from your projects.Because the book refers to some current-day equipment like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, etc some chapters may get obsolete in a few years, so I hope the author and editors will continue to make updates.Basically, I didn't know a lot about motors and found the book very cle
