01 Project Description:

The goal of this design is to build a synchronous twin-tub washing machine (TTWM)
drive with a 340 Watt load capacity. The load and the majority of the design
parameters were drawn from a real twin-tub washing machine, the Toshiba VH-
H80WPH, whose technical data was acquired from its brochure and was used as a
guide when calculating the initial design parameters.
