The paper presents a program for optimized design or re-design of three-phase induction motors conceived in VISUAL BASIC language. The program structure is modular and can thus be adjusted to the most varied requirements of induction motor design. For its users, the program offers several facilities, i.e. a friendly interface, different ways of formulating the optimum problem, an updatable database including information on the characteristics of the materials used and the manufactured motors, the user's guide that comprises the detailed description of the program and explanations for each computation step.
