    Hello
    I know a bit about engines.
    In my opinion:
    Inverter driven induction motor = Inverter motor.
    Yet another issue is the motors in LG washing machines ...
    There is the TYPICAL Direct Drive. As for the motor type, it is a classic BLDC motor, which is also controlled by an inverter.
    The question arises: What is the difference between an inverter motor and a BLDC motor?
    The BLDC motor has a permanent magnet rotor and is a synchronous machine, while inverter (inverter driven induction) motors have squirrel cage rotors and are asynchronous.
    This does not mean, however, that BLDC motors are only Direct Drive type. It is enough for the motor that moves the drum through the belt to have permanent magnets on the rotor and becomes a BLDC motor.
    The method of controlling such motors is quite similar, only in BLDC motors, the voltage induced on the coil, which is de-energized in a given commutation, can be used to check the current position of the rotor.

    Greetings,
    Charles

    Everything is correct. There is only one thing and the most important thing - mechanics. If we place magnets around the circumference of the drum, and the coils behind a waterproof wall or embedded in the housing, then we will give up and in one fell swoop the belt, i.e. we have Direct Drive and BLDC, and there is no unreliable drum shaft sealant, and that's it. Regards also.

    I have read your observations and I am asking for your advice. I will be grateful for the answer, is it worth buying a washing machine with an inverter motor? She was faced with a difficult choice of buying a washing machine and as I am an unusual woman, the appearance does not matter to me. It is supposed to be failure-free and economical, it is about replacing parts in the event of possible repairs. Due to the dimensions of the recess, it must be 45 cm deep. I insisted on Elektrolux or AEG.

    @Ewabit More like a "Direct Drive" for the reasons I mentioned in post # 32.

    Mechanically, maybe a 10-year warranty, but the electronics will last?
    The Ps 663 bio washing machine has been working for 25 years and the ones that have not been eaten by the rust are still working.
    Regarding the savings in inverter motors, please compare the washing machines of the same manufacturer with different motors in terms of the energy consumption for washing.
    Dunajek. Give commutator losses and their influence on motor overheating. I don't think you know what you are writing about.

    I have an Ariston super silent with a regular engine. It washes very quietly, but it pumps out the water like a regular indesite
    / the same pump /.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the choice between Electrolux washing machines equipped with induction motors and inverter motors, focusing on their longevity and efficiency. Users highlight that inverter motors are generally quieter and more energy-efficient compared to traditional induction motors. There is some confusion regarding the terminology, with participants clarifying that inverter motors can be considered a type of controlled induction motor. The consensus suggests that while inverter motors may offer advantages in terms of noise and efficiency, traditional induction motors are still reliable and may be preferable for long-term use. The conversation also touches on the marketing aspects of model updates and the interchangeability of terms used by manufacturers. Users recommend checking the manufacturer's specifications for clarity on motor types and features.
