In dc machines, the field system has to be provided on stator unlike synchronous machines Where in it could be on any member, because

 it gives more uniform air-gap flux distribution
 dc machines are comparatively low rating machines.
 it reduces field structure iron losses
 commutator action is not possible otherwise
