What is a small DC bus motor
Nearly all types of DC motors have some internal mechanism, either electromechanical or electronic, to periodically change the direction of current in part of the motor. These motors come in types like brushed, brushless, and coreless, each with special benefits. Small DC electric motors drive innovation in modern technology, powering everything from smartphones to robotic arms. Although a common DC bus configuration is not new and took rise along with the DC to AC drive migration in the 1990s, there are increased implementations across many different industries. The Pennsylvania Railroad's class DD1 locomotive running gear was a semi-permanently coupled pairing of third rail direct current electric locomotive motors built for the railroad's initial New York-area electrification when steam locomotives were banned in the city (locomotive cab removed here).
