What are the advantages of a DC Motor versus an AC Motor. I've got two old conveyors I'm going to begin to rebuild in the next few weeks. I am going to replace the motors during the rebuild of course.
The conveyors originally came with DC motors and I'm thinking that converting to an AC motor requiring no brush maintenance might be a good idea or it might not.
I would be willing to install a freq drive to control speed. Should I match up HP and go for it, or would you guys just stick with the DC motors. What are the advantages of a DC motor?
Thanks!
