Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to some of the most common questions about motor control and motion control products. If you need further assistance, our technical team is always happy to help.

What is motor control?
Motor control refers to the equipment used to start, stop, protect and regulate the speed or torque of an electric motor. Common motor control products include Variable Speed Drives, Soft Starters, motor starters, contactors and overload relays.
What is the difference between a Variable Speed Drive and a Soft Starter?
A Variable Speed Drive (VSD) continuously controls motor speed and torque, helping improve energy efficiency and process control. A Soft Starter gradually increases motor voltage during start-up to reduce electrical inrush current and mechanical stress, but does not provide ongoing speed control.
When should I use a Servo System?
Servo Systems are ideal for applications requiring highly accurate positioning, speed control and repeatability, including packaging machinery, robotics, CNC equipment and automated production lines.
Can Variable Speed Drives reduce energy consumption?
Yes. By matching motor speed to the application's actual demand, Variable Speed Drives can significantly reduce energy consumption, particularly in variable torque applications such as pumps, fans and ventilation systems.
Which motor control brands does LED Controls supply?
We supply motor control products from leading manufacturers including ABB, Danfoss, Lovato Electric, Unitronics and many other globally recognised industrial automation brands.
Can LED Controls help me choose the right motor control product?
Absolutely. Our experienced technical team can help you select the most suitable Variable Speed Drive, Soft Starter, Servo System or motor control solution based on your application, motor specifications and operational requirements.
Do you offer trade accounts?
Yes. We offer trade accounts for businesses, OEMs, panel builders, electrical contractors and industrial customers. Trade customers benefit from competitive pricing, account management and access to our extensive product range.
