Planetary Gear Motor first draft open SCAD

prusaprinters

<p>Have been thinking quite a while now about this and am not sure if this will really ever be a realistically useful motor.</p> <p>As it is it is completely untested and adjusted for tiny magnets of the following dimensions:</p> <p>wideM=4.8; // define the Magnet Width</p> <p>longM=6; // define the Magnet length (this is the hight of the stack too)</p> <p>deepM=3; // define the Magnet depth (this is the axis of magnetization)</p> <p>You have the option to sort all the magnets in one direction; or alternate the direction - the winding interval will depend on that, and I admit I haven't figured it out myself!</p> <p>There is a method cycleVis(); to visualize the spinning of the magnets, there is also a method for animation.</p> <p>I created a group <a href="/groups/electromotor-design">https://www.thingiverse.com/groups/electromotor-design</a> specifically for people that like the subject and colaboration - come and join!</p> <p>P.S.: Meanwhile I printed a first test but the print in place gears are totally locked, and I have no idea yet how to configure the gap or achieve a part that can spin!</p> Category: DIY
