Two such critical components are actuators and Motor Operated Valves (MOVs). While these terms are often used interchangeably in casual discussions, they represent different concepts, functions, and applications. This blog dives deep into understanding the difference between actuators and MOVs, exploring their working principles, types, applications, advantages, and key distinctions. What is an Actuator? An actuator is a mechanical device that converts energy into motion. Essentially, it acts as a bridge between a control system (like a PLC – Programmable Logic Controller) and the physical device that needs to move. Actuators are fundamental in automation, robotics, and process industries because...

Introduction: Why Wireless Power Is Trending Now Imagine a world where you never have to fumble for a charging cable again, where medical implants recharge inside your body without surgery, and where your smartwatch sips energy invisibly while you go about your day. This isn’t the stuff of science fiction—it’s the very real future being shaped by breakthroughs in wireless power transfer (WPT). Wireless power has been around longer than most people think—Nikola Tesla dreamed of it more than a century ago—but only now are we reaching the point where everyday use is becoming possible, safe, and efficient. The reason is simple: our lives are becoming increasingly entangled with technology that needs constant energy. From biomedical implants that keep hearts beating to wearables tracking our health, from IoT devices making homes smart to vehicles that talk to each other, everything needs power. And the demand for seamless, cab...

“Thanks for reading! Follow Tack Knowledge for more updates.”                           Introduction In the modern world, electricity powers almost everything we do — from the light in our homes to the machines in industries. But along with its benefits, electricity also comes with risks like electric shock, fire hazards, and damage to appliances. That’s where electrical earthing comes in. Earthing (also called grounding) is the process of connecting the non-current-carrying parts of electrical equipment or the neutral point of a power system to the earth. This ensures that in case of a fault, excess electrical energy flows safely into the ground instead of causing harm. This guide will take you through the various types of earthing, their importance, applications, and benefits—all written in a human-friendly style and optimized for search engines.              What is Electrical Earthing...

“Thanks for reading! Follow Tack Knowledge for more updates.” Introduction : Electric power systems require reliable protection from faults like short circuits or overloads. Circuit breakers are crucial components that interrupt fault currents and protect equipment. Among various types of circuit breakers, the Vacuum Circuit Breaker (VCB) stands out due to its excellent arc-quenching properties, long life, and minimal maintenance. This blog explores the working principle, construction, advantages, disadvantages, and applications of VCBs in detail. --- Main Content : What is a Vacuum Circuit Breaker (VCB) ? A Vacuum Circuit Breaker is a type of circuit breaker where vacuum is used as the arc-extinguishing medium. When the circuit breaker interrupts the current, the arc that forms between the contacts is quickly extinguished due to the high dielectric strength of the vacuum. --- Why Vacuum? Vacuum has no ionized particles, so it provides excellent insulation. The arc disappears quickly b...

“Thanks for reading! Follow Tack Knowledge for more updates.” Introduction: As the automotive world shifts rapidly toward electrification, the electric vehicle (EV) has become a symbol of innovation, sustainability, and future mobility. At the heart of every EV is a motor that converts electrical energy into mechanical power to drive the wheels. Among the different types of motors available, Brushless DC Motors (BLDC) are gaining immense popularity—and for good reason. This blog explores the technology behind BLDC motors, why they are favored in EVs, their advantages over traditional motors, and how they’re shaping the future of transportation. --- What is a Brushless DC Motor (BLDC)? A Brushless DC Motor is a type of synchronous electric motor that is powered by direct current (DC) and uses electronic commutation instead of mechanical brushes. It consists of: Stator:  The stationary part that carries the winding. Rotor:  The rotating part made of permanent magnets. Electronic...
