Electric Motor 2
thingiverse
This electric motor is made using a printed circuit board, 3D-printed components, and 44 rare earth magnets. It resembles http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:802 but is easier to create and performs better. The maximum mechanical power output is about 600 mW, and the top no-load speed is around 2000 rpm. Users can produce functional motors using only a 3D printer, with guidance from Reprap-style printers for circuit board fabrication. Videos of the motor in operation are available on YouTube. The work was presented at ASME IDETC 2011 under citation DETC2011-48602. To create the motor, print two sets of provided STL files and order a PCB coil plate using the gerber files. Assemble magnets, washers, LEDs, phototransistors, and driver circuitry, and power with a supply of 9-12V. The creator's MATLAB/Octave code generates custom motor coil patterns for EAGLE or KiCad format.
