Any supply as long as the voltage matches that of the motor and the current is high enough for the motor.
I would encourage you to use DC Supply>>
From my original post, what type of DC PS?
hi junksasa
frank's point was kinda obvious you already knew that
Harald's comment was totally valid
since you havent told us anything about the motor ... its voltage or current ratings
Harald's advice was the best that could be given
Dave
If thats true then why are there PS that are switched and linear, regulated and non-regulated? What are the applications for these different types of PS? My motor is 24VDC, 5A nominal, 10A loaded.
switched mode vs. linear:
SMPS have high efficiency (low loss), but are comparatively noisy.
Linear regulators have low efficiency (high loss), but cqn be very silent (low noise).
Regulated vs. unregulated:
What's the question? It is obvious, isn't it?
If you need a precise voltage, you regulate. If your requirements with respect to voltage regulatioon are low, you can use an unregulated supply. For a motor you don't need a regulated supply - unless it is explicitely stated by the manufacturer (e.e. if the motor is electronically commutated, also called brushless. But that's another story).
