Motor is a device that creates motion, an engine; it usually refers to either an electrical motor or an internal combustion engine.
Devices that convert electrical power into mechanical motion.
Electric motor, a machine that converts electricity into a mechanical motion
AC motor, an electric motor that is driven by alternating current
Synchronous motor, an alternating current motor distinguished by a rotor spinning with coils passing magnets at the same rate as the alternating current and resulting magnetic field which drives it
Induction motor, also called a squirrel-cage motor, a type of asynchronous alternating current motor where power is supplied to the rotating device by means of electromagnetic induction
DC motor, an electric motor that runs on direct current electricity
Brushed DC electric motor, an internally commutated electric motor designed to be run from a direct current power source
Brushless DC motor, a synchronous electric motor which is powered by direct current electricity and has an electronically controlled commutation system, instead of a mechanical commutation system based on brushes
Electrostatic motor, a type of electric motor based on the attraction and repulsion of electric charge
Servo motor, an electric motor that operates a servo, commonly used in robotics
Internal fan-cooled electric motor, an electric motor that is self-cooled by a fan, typically used for motors with a high energy density
