In this paper, distinct techniques of speed controlling of a Direct Current (DC) motor and its characteristics are discussed. The Direct Current (DC) motor has a wide range of speed control, which can be used in robots, drilling, cutting, and household applications due to affordable cost and low complexity of control configuration for speed and torque control. As DC Motors are considered as the best type of motors, in view of the speed control and speed regulation, numerous approaches are available to control the motor rotational speed. DC series motor control by using a resistive controller with and without a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is proposed. The motor voltage can be changed by inserting a resistor in series with DC motor. In this paper, through an experimental work armature resistive drive control technology and motor control PLC technology is used to control motor speed. PLC is used to control the resistance of the motor, thereby reducing driving voltage to change the speed. The results confirm the authentic efficiency of the proposed method of controlling motor speed.
