Control System Upgrade for Canal ARC SAW

Upgrading the specific components of the Arc Saw, such as the HMI, the components of the chassis involving the I/O modules, servo motor modules, and PLC modules offers numerous advantages. By enhancing the HMI, the operators will benefit having a user-friendly interface, enabling smoother control and monitoring of the ARC SAW’s functionality. Upgrading the modules will contribute to an improved precision and responsiveness in changing modes of the ARC SAW as well as the adjusting the saw blades position, further enhancing the system's overall performance. These upgrades, while maintaining the same functionality, enable the latest technological advancements without needing significant changes or disruptions to existing operations.

Propulsion System Design using a Dual 3-Phase PM Synchronous Reluctance Machine with X-Type Multi-Level GaN Inverter

— A propulsion system design is exhibited here that comprises of an X-type GaN power module based dual multi-level inverter and a PM Synchronous Reluctance motor. With the critical benefits of multi-level operation, namely low common mode EMI noise, low switching loss, low current Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), smoother torque and lower iron loss, this topology targets high system-level efficiency and high power density while using reduced rare earth (RE) elements in its motor. General Motors and Purdue University jointly designed and developed this 800V class, highly scalable traction drive that can deliver 200+ kW of power suitable for C-SUV to truck vehicle class. The 3-phase electric machine design utilizes dual winding with 6 terminals to work in line with the GaN X-type inverter, and results in a tractive solution that ensures higher machine efficiency while reducing cost and uncertainty related to use and availability of heavy rare earth/rare earth elements in its rotor.
