what is cogging and crawling

Answer Posted / dharm veer verma

Induction motors have a series of slots in the stator and in the rotor. These slots should not be equal in number because if they are, there is a good chance that the motor will not start at all due to a characteristic known as cogging. The slots will align like a stepper motor.
For this reason, there are an unequal number of slots in the rotor and in the stator, but there can still be situations where the slot frequencies coincide with harmonic frequencies and this can cause torque modulations. The slots are skewed to keep an overlap on all slots to reduce this problem.
