How
to select coreless dc motor? |
|
Due to obvious
differences in performance and price betweenDC
coreless motor and ironed rotor motor,product
designer and electrical engineer should have a
concern about how to select a particular motor
to make use of the advantage of coreless motor
and meet requirements.
We suggest that the motor should
be operated at the most efficient area when customer
selects high-quality coreless motor,so it is essential
to confirm working range and condition together.
The five factors below should
be considered: |
|
|
Power matching
is mainly involved in operating voltage,operating
current,operating speed and operating torque.
In general, operating voltage
and operating speed is easy to choose according
to requirements, while operating torque is often
defined by particular testing equipment or experimental
data. Operating current is concerned with operating
torque, we can get operating current due to particular
torque according to related formula.
Take the efficiency of gearbox
causing energy loss into account when assembling
it.
Technical data abroad often
refers to max. power of motor not normal operating
output power, so please consider its difference
carefully when selecting motor. |
|
| (1)Determine basic application
data: |
|
| Torque required M |
(mN.m) |
Speed required n |
(rpm) |
Max. Voltage U |
(V) |
| Max. Current I |
(A) |
Max. Permissible Dia. Of motor |
(mm) |
Output shaft load: Axial/radial |
(N) |
|
| (2)Calculate output efficiency
of motor required: |
|
| Output efficiency: |
|
| |
 |
(W) |
| |
(W) refers
to efficiency of operating point |
|
| (3)After(1)(2)is determined,consult
production catalogue to select appropriate motor. |
|
| 2.Motor operating mode and environmental
conditions |
|
The motor usually
includes several modes of operation such as constant
load continuous run, variational load continuous
run, intermittent run, impactive load run, forward
and reverse run or a combination of condition
above. There is a little difference considering
actual mode of application when selecting motor.
Some application requires motor
to produce disturbing signals as little as possible.
How to make the speed of motor and load fit decides
magnitude of disturbing.
Operating condition has a close
relation with the choice of motor. For example,
the magnitude of operating current is directly
proportion to operating life when supplying power
with batteries. Ambient temperature is a important
factor in affecting output parameter of motor,
and also impaction and vibration have an effect
on operating status of motor. |
|
|
Operating life
is related with manufacture precision, quality
and dimension of commutator. However, operating
mode of motor, load (operating current), operating
speed and environment condition also influence
life. From our experiment, we learn that continuous
operating life will exceed ten thousand hours
under lower current and speed while only have
several hundreds of hours under high-limited.
There is a marked difference
of life due to distinct operating mode and environment
condition. 1000-3000 hours data sheet mentioned
refers to life at unilateral constant load within
the period of operating area. |
|
|
| We
suggest that the motor should be operated within
fifteen percent of the max. efficiency point in
order to take use of high efficiency of coreless
motor and keep high motor life. We consider internal
structure of motor as well as efficiency when
recommending the upper limit of operation. Product
introduction of coreless motor abroad often marks
very high continuous operating current which affects
lifetime in the product explanation. |
| Max.efficiency: |
 |
is
no load current; |
is
operating current. |
Our
experience has shown that max
is close to U/7R=IB, so the range of IB should
vary from U/7R to the upper limit of continuous
operation. |
| 5.Dimension
Of Motor And Assembly |
Coreless
motor is one of the most efficiency of energy
exchange. Customers usually pursues smaller dimension,
and we can provide five types of model from diameter
16mm X 25mm to 36mm X 72mm, ten kinds of dimension
and dozens of spec. for a choice, however, a particular
dimension of motor or planetary gearbox can be
done owing to user's requirements.
Assembly dimension of gearbox
mainly depends on relative parameter of output
shaft and hole of bolt. |
| Notes: |
1.Please look technical
data and attention through in the product sheet
in order to avoid damage in use or assembling.
2.Please compare terms explanation and relative
formula not merely depending on technical data
for a choice due to different point of expression
every manufacturer.
3.Please contact manufacturer when user can not
supply necessary data of selecting motor or have
other requests .
4.Please contact manufacturer when user can not
supply necessary data of selecting motor or have
other requests . |
