5.universal Motor Speed Control Using SCR

This document describes a project to control the speed of a universal motor using a thyristor (SCR). The speed is varied by adjusting the firing angle of the SCR, which controls the voltage to the motor. A microcontroller triggers the SCR based on signals from a zero-crossing detector to fire the SCR at different times in the AC cycle. This allows remote control of the motor speed through a keypad connected to the microcontroller. Applications include speed control for industrial equipment, agricultural machinery, sewing machines, and mixtures.

DESCRIPTION:

Speed control of universal motor is based on adjusting the voltage which gets to the
motor. Speed control has been possible for many decades by using adjustable power resistors and
adjustable transformers. Those methods have been used in sewing shops, drilling machines and
other so many applications. The problem of those speed controlling methods have been that they
are big, expensive, have poor efficiency and they are hard to control from remote location.
In this project we can vary the speed of motor by pressing the buttons. That means motor
will rotate with more speed when the firing angle of SCR is less and speed will decreases as the
firing angle increases.
The main another part in this project is line zero crossing detector. We have to trigger the
SCR after the line voltage crosses its zero level. The Zero crossing detectors will give the pulse
to the microcontroller when the line voltage crosses its zero level and our microcontroller will
trigger SCR by considering the firing angle time delay.
