AC asynchronous moving motor 3D model

The two main types of AC motors are induction motors and synchronous motors. The induction motor (or asynchronous motor) always relies on a small difference in speed between the stator rotating magnetic field and the rotor shaft speed called slip to induce rotor current in the rotor AC winding. In an AC motor , there's a ring of electromagnets arranged around the outside (making up the stator), which are designed to produce a rotating magnetic field. ... Unlike in a DC motor , where you send power to the inner rotor, in an AC motor you send power to the outer coils that make up the stator.
