A new approach to rapid automated performance testing of motors is presented in this paper. Specific application is made to brush motors (such as those used in vacuum cleaners) in order to illustrate the techniques on a motor which, because of its high speed and heating characteristics, is considered to be more difficult to test than other types of motors. The application of the technology described in this paper to other types of motors is straightforward.
