Elektrische Antriebstechnik

This book addresses all aspects of modern electrical drive technology from the perspective of a user. It is aimed both at practitioners who want to understand, design, implement, and maintain electrical drives, and at skilled workers, technicians, engineers, and students who wish to gain a comprehensive overview of electrical drive technology.

Jens Weidauer describes the fundamentals of electrical drives, their design and application, up to complex automation solutions. He presents the entire spectrum of drive solutions along with their respective areas of application. A special focus is on the combination of multiple drives into drive systems and the integration of drives into automation solutions. New topics in this edition include connectivity to the IoT and a selection guide for determining the optimal drive solution.

In simple and clear language, supported by many graphical representations, complex relationships are explained and presented in an understandable manner. The author consciously avoids extensive mathematical considerations and emphasizes a clear explanation of the principles of operation and interconnections. This enables the reader to understand electrical drives in their entirety and to solve drive technology problems in their professional everyday life.
