Compared with traditional motors, shaded-pole motors have the following main differences:

1. **Structural differences**:

- Traditional motors use brush commutation and require mechanical commutation devices.

- Shaded-pole motors use brushless DC motor structure and do not have mechanical commutation devices.

2. **Control method**:

- Traditional motors require mechanical commutation devices and brush contact for control.

- Shaded-pole motors use electronic commutation control and achieve precise control through electronic inverters.

3. **Energy conversion efficiency**:

- The energy conversion efficiency of traditional motors is relatively low and is greatly affected by mechanical losses.

- Shaded-pole motors have higher energy conversion efficiency, less mechanical losses, and better energy-saving effects.

4. **Noise level**:

- Traditional motors will generate certain noise due to mechanical commutation devices.

- Shaded-pole motors do not require mechanical commutation and have lower noise levels during operation.

5. **Maintenance requirements**:

- Traditional motors need to replace brushes regularly, and the maintenance cost is high.

- Shaded pole motors do not require brush replacement, and have low maintenance costs.

6. **Response speed**:

- The response speed of traditional motors is affected by mechanical inertia and is relatively slow.

- Shaded pole motors use electronic control, which has a faster response speed and can achieve fine control.

In general, compared with traditional motors, shaded pole motors have many advantages such as simple structure, high energy efficiency, low noise, and convenient maintenance. They are more widely used and popular in the fields of household appliances. This makes shaded pole motors one of the important trends in the future development of household appliances.
