Abstract
The machines to be studied in this chapter are basically induction motors, but their purpose is different from that of the motors discussed so far in this book. The name servomotors is meant to imply that they should be considered as auxiliary parts, namely, as components of automatic control systems. Their essential purpose is not power conversion per se, but rather the translation of a time-varying signal into a corresponding time-varying motion. Some examples may help to illustrate the idea to those readers who have not yet studied feedback control systems.
