An induction engine which connects with a 3-phase supply called 3-stage induction motor. Example enthusiasts,blowers, cranes,traction .It really is a ac motor. The main drawback of DC motors may be the existence of commutator and brushes, which require regular 
maintenance and we can’t use DC motor in explosive and dirty environment. But induction motors are cheaper,rugged,lighter,smaller,require less maintenance and will use in dirty and explosive environment. Slip s may be the imp factor in this type 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 three phase ac induction motor china voltage controller starter
Rotor resistance starter
Important braking methods are
Regenerative braking
Plugging or reverse voltage braking
Dynamic braking
But one thing velocity control technique of induction motor is important
Pole changing
Stator voltage control
V/f control
Slip power recovery
Rotor resistance control
