Case study of Switched Reluctance Motor for use in the Electric Torque Tool

The paper presents a prototype of a high-speed Switched Reluctance Motor designed for power tools and results of simulations of the control system of this motor. The basic aims of the simulation was to determine the efficient control of the motor phases and to determine the electromagnetic torque ripple. Simulations have shown the necessity of modifying the drive control algorithm to reduce the amount of alternating components of the electromagnetic torque of the motor.
