An induction motor or 3 phase induction motor can be an AC electric motor in which the electric current in the rotor needed to create torque is obtained by electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field 
of the stator winding
An induction motor which connects with a 3-phase supply called 3-phase induction motor. Example supporters,blowers, cranes,Three Phase Motor traction .It is a ac electric motor. The primary drawback of DC motors is the existence of commutator and brushes, which require frequent maintenance and we can not use DC motor in explosive and filthy environment. But induction motors are cheaper,rugged,lighter,smaller,require less maintenance and can use in filthy and explosive environment. Slip s may be the imp factor in this kind of motor.
There are 2 types of IM.
Squirrel cage IM
Slip ring IM
There are numerous starting and braking condition.
Important starting methods are
Star-delta starter
Auto transformer starter
Ac voltage controller starter
Rotor resistance starter
Important braking methods are
Regenerative braking
Plugging or invert voltage braking
Dynamic braking
But one thing swiftness control technique of induction motor is important
Pole changing
Stator voltage control
V/f control
Slip power recovery
Rotor resistance control
