The Journey of Passion, Perfection, 
and Extraordinary Knowledge

The Journey of Passion, Perfection, 
and Extraordinary Knowledge

A great idea is borne in just a few short moments. Perhaps it takes more to document and engineer the design, a bit more to prototype, and a lifetime to perfect it. The journey experience is extraordinary, and we must share it with all. This journey was filled with the incredible discovery of knowledge, the application of that knowledge, and the power to change the world forever.
We want to share our knowledge and experiences with you to make your journey more natural.
Our online workshops culminate our work in motors, motor drives, and power electronics for the last thirty years. Power Electronics Group has launched the most innovative and revolutionary products in these areas for several years.
So, We speak with the experience of having lived through each of these products from conception to manufacturing launch to continuous perfection. The mistakes were grand, the lessons were painful, the knowledge discovery was extraordinary, and the passion and dedication were without question.

Permanent Magnet Brushless Motors – A System Approach

Lessons from the Trenches
We believe that a real-world class product in motors and motor drives is not possible without knowing all four aspects of the systems in depth:
Learning all aspects is not that hard. The needs of the hour pushed us to help our team of engineers solve serious design problems, and the benefits of this learning were tremendous.
Engineering a world-class wonder is never easy. It requires prudent risk-taking, profound discovery, and knowledge application. Experience and challenging lessons from the trenches are most valuable.

For a Company, Cumulative Discovery of Knowledge and its Application must reach a Critical point for it to matter. The journey must be Passionate and Patient.

Rakesh Dhawan, BTech, MSEE, MBA Founder of Power Electronics Group

Our online Courses combine comprehensive and practical knowledge of motor, inverter, hardware, and firmware design techniques with a system approach. This approach is critical because it forces engineers to evaluate problems from a 360-degree perspective rather than a narrow portion.
Only an in-depth knowledge of the motor characteristics can help develop great hardware and firmware. Knowing the limitations of hardware and firmware helps us develop an excellent motor. No cost reduction is possible without optimizing each component for its best performance individually and at a system level.

Course Objectives

This Course aims to impart knowledge of techniques for developing brushless permanent magnet motors, drives, and systems. The Course has the following objectives:

Course Advantages

Who Should Attend

Module One: Open Source AI-Powered Motor Fundamentals

Module One transforms traditional motor theory into AI-accelerated understanding. We’ll explore how machine learning algorithms discover optimal motor architectures, demonstrate Python-based analytical tools that surpass expensive software, and introduce space vector concepts through interactive visualizations.

Hands-On AI Implementation: Participants will utilize genetic algorithms for motor optimization, deploy neural networks for thermal analysis, and master open-source FEA tools (FEMM) for professional-grade electromagnetic simulation. Real-world mechanical considerations, including power transmission, mounting strategies, and failure mode prediction, will be analyzed using predictive AI models.

Revolutionary Approach: Instead of memorizing equations, you’ll understand how AI discovers design principles automatically, creating motor designs that exceed human intuition while using completely free tools.

Module Two: Intelligent Inverter & Open Source Hardware Mastery Building World-Class Motor Drives Without Licensing Fees

Module Two revolutionizes inverter design through open source excellence. We’ll demonstrate how STM32 microcontrollers outperform expensive industrial controllers, showcase KiCad PCB designs rivaling commercial motor drives, and implement AI-enhanced control algorithms that adapt in real-time.

Practical Breakthroughs: Build complete motor control systems using Arduino IDE, PlatformIO, and FreeRTOS. Implement machine learning field-oriented control that optimizes efficiency automatically. Design professional inverter circuits using ngspice simulation and KiCad layout tools.

Module Two of the course will focus on hardware and firmware design, power stage design, inverter and peripheral circuit design, and network for motor control systems.

Module two of the course will also cover two designs (motor + controller) in detail, along with the design calculations, simulations, processor selection, circuit design, and final performance results. 

Module Three: Advanced AI Simulation & Digital Twin Creation Mastering Professional-Grade Analysis Using Free Tools

Module Three achieves simulation excellence without expensive licenses. Master FEMM scripting for automated design optimization, implement AI-powered sensor-less control algorithms, and create digital twins that predict motor performance in real-time.

Cutting-Edge Applications: Deploy machine learning algorithms for predictive maintenance, use Jupyter notebooks for interactive motor analysis, and build cloud-connected motor systems using open source IoT platforms.
