Commutating Data for General DC Machines

Commutating must be inserted under the stator by right-clicking on the stator icon to display the pop-up menu, and click Insert Commutating command. This command also inserts an icon in the project tree for an associated winding.

To remove an existing Commutating (and associated winding), right-click on the stator icon to display the pop-up menu and click Remove Commutating. This removes the commutating and the associated winding.

Note: This is distinct from the general Commutator data associated with rotor.

Pole width	Width of the commutating poles
Pole height	Height of the commutating poles.
Pole length	Length of the commutating poles
Shoe width	Shoe width of the commutating poles
Shoe height	Shoe height of the commutating poles.
Second air gap	Length of the second air gap between the commutating pole and the frame.
Pole stacking factor	Stacking factor for the commutating poles.
Pole material	Steel type of the commutating poles. Click the button to display the Select Definition window.
Pole insulation	Thickness of insulation on the pole body side.
