3d Printed Electric Motor

They ve 3d printed a working electric motor from iron copper and ceramic materials.

3d printed electric motor.

This is the second motor laimer has designed. Electrical engineers from the chemnitz university of technology have achieved a world first. The focus is on copper windings the main component of every electric motor. The 3d printing process that the researchers developed for the motor involves the extrusion of viscous pastes which consist of particles of iron copper or ceramics as well as specially adapted.

During testing he found that the standard bldc motor had an inductance about seven times higher than the ferromagnetic 3d printed motor. The simplified production directly from the designer s cad data enables shorter development and test cycles additive drives explains. This particular model is brushless. The main components like rotor and stator can be printed with a common fdm printer.

With the 3d printing of electric motor components we are starting a new era of efficiency in electric motors. It has 600 watts and performs with more than 80 efficiency. That ultimately means that the 3d printed versions have significantly less torque. That in turn was about 25 higher than the standard pla.

Using fusion360 to design laimer s final assembly and self printed tools requires 12 3d printed parts. Magnets copper wire and ball bearings are ordinary components.

This is a very powerful 3d printed brushless dc electric motor.

The company claims these coils are 40 better than conventional coils. They spin faster but there isn t much power behind that spin. Motorbike 17inch rim cad motorbike.
