The control phase voltage is shifted in phase by 90\u00b0 from the reference phase voltage. The motor torque is reversed by phase reversal of the control phase voltage. For linear stable operation, the torque speed characteristics of the servo motor must be linear with negative slope (torque reducing with increasing speed). The torque speed characteristics of a normally designed induction motor is highly non-linear and is unstable for normal loads in the region from zero speed to speed at breakdown torque. This indeed is the useful region of operation of a servomotor employed in position control systems.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is obtained by designing a rotor with high resistance so that the maximum torque occurs at a slip of \u20130.5. Due to high rotor resistance, servo-motor does not develop single-phasing torque which may disturb the control characteristic of the motor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The torque-speed characteristic of a servomotor for various per unit values of phase voltage are drawn in fig. (c). Low-inertia construction is achieved by using a drag-cup rotor.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_79_1 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-light-blue ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.madeeasy.in\/study\/ee\/two-phase-servomotor\/#Advantages-of-ac-servomotors-over-dc-servomotors-are\" >Advantages of ac servomotors over dc servomotors are:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.madeeasy.in\/study\/ee\/two-phase-servomotor\/#AC-Tachometers\" >AC Tachometers<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages-of-ac-servomotors-over-dc-servomotors-are\"><\/span>Advantages of ac servomotors over dc servomotors are:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Use of a drift-free ac amplifier in the control circuitry.<\/p>\n<p>1.
