Starter lamination is a critical component in both AC and DC motors, serving as the foundation for the motor's operation. In AC motors, the starter lamination is essential for the creation of a rotating magnetic field. This rotating field induces the flow of electric current in the rotor, enabling the motor to convert electrical energy into mechanical motion. In DC motors, the starter lamination is equally vital, as it supports the commutator and brushes, which are essential for maintaining the direction of current in the rotor windings.
