kommutaattoreissa

Kommutaattoreissa, also known as commutators, are electrical devices used in direct current (DC) motors to convert alternating current (AC) generated by the motor into DC. They consist of a rotating cylinder with multiple segments, each connected to a different wire, and a stationary set of brushes that make contact with these segments. As the cylinder rotates, the brushes move across the segments, effectively reversing the direction of the current in the motor's armature, allowing it to continue rotating in the same direction. This process is crucial for the operation of DC motors, enabling them to produce continuous rotational motion. Kommutaattoreissa are commonly used in various applications, including electric vehicles, industrial machinery, and household appliances. Their design and functionality are essential for the efficient and reliable operation of DC motors.
