HOW DOES A DC MOTOR WORK?

By connecting the conductor through a lever arm to a point of rotation, a torque can be created.

Torque = Radius x Force

BRUSHLESS FRAMELESS

BENEFITS:

• Allows for direct integration with a mechanical transmission device, eliminating parts that add size, complexity, response and settling time.

• The design engineer is not constrained to the mounting interface and shaft dimensions of a typical framed motor.

BRUSH VS. BRUSHLESS

ADVANTAGES of BRUSH MOTOR• Two wire control• Replaceable brushes for extended life• Low cost of construction• Simple and inexpensive controls

DISADVANTAGES • Periodic maintenance is required for brush wear• At higher speeds, brush friction increases, thus reducing useful torque• Poor heat dissipation due to internal rotor construction• Higher rotor inertia which limits the dynamic characteristics• Lower speed range due to mechanical limitations on the brushes• Brush Arcing will generate noise causing EMI

BRUSH VS. BRUSHLESS

ADVANTAGES of BRUSHLESS MOTOR• Electronic commutation based on Hall position sensors• Less required maintenance due to absence of brushes• High efficiency, no voltage drop across brushes• Higher speed range - no mechanical limitation imposed by brushes/commutator• Essentially no (EMI) electric noise generation • The windings in the stator laminations assembly are connected to the housing yielding excellent heat dissipation resulting in:

• Higher output power/frame size. • Smaller size than brush motors for same power.

DISADVANTAGES • Higher cost of construction• Control is complex and expensive

STEPPER DC MOTOR

What is it?

Is a brushless motor that divides a full rotation into a number of equal steps. The motor’s position can be then commanded to move and hold at one of these steps without feedback sensor, open loop, as long as the motor is properly sized for the application.

How does it work?

Brush or brushless motors rotate continuously when voltage is applied. Stepper motors have multiple “toothed” electromagnets arranged around a central shaped piece of iron or permanent magnet. To make run, first, one electromagnet is given power, which makes the gear's teeth magnetically attracted to the electromagnet’s teeth. When the gear’s teeth are aligned to the first electromagnet , they are slightly offset from the next electromagnet. Then the next electromagnet is turned on and the process starts again.

STEPPER VS. BRUSH, BRUSHLESS MOTOR

• Stepper smaller power to weight size ratio• Stepper are usually 70% efficient where brush or brushless are 80% to 90% efficient• Stepper usually have a low resolution .9 to 1.8 deg. That is 400 steps/ rev. Where the other can go to 4,096 steps/rev• Stepper motors may stall and skip steps if the motor is not powerful enough by misapplying it.• Stepper motors draw excess current regardless of load. The excess power is dissipated as heat.• Stepper motors produce a slight hum due to the control process.• Stepper motors vibrate slightly and have some resonance issues because of how the stepper motor operates.

DC MOTOR CONSTANTS• Kt Torque/Current

•Torque = Force x R (Lever Arm)•Torque is proportional to:• Number of conductors• R (Length of Lever Arm)• Magnetic Field Strength• Current Magnitude•If the number of conductors is fixed and •The length of the Lever Arm is fixed and •The Magnetic Strength is Fixed THEN•TORQUE IS PROPORTIONAL TO CURRENT (I)•Kt = TORQUE /CURRENT

• Typically: Nm/Amp, oz.in./Amp, in.Lbs/Amp

DC MOTOR CONSTANTS• Ke Velocity/Voltage

Motion: Velocity = 2 ∏ x R (Lever Arm) x RPM•Voltage is proportional to:• Number of conductors• R (Length of Lever Arm)• Magnetic Field Strength• Velocity•If the number of conductors is fixed and •The length of the Lever Arm is fixed and •The Magnetic Strength is Fixed THEN•VOLTAGE IS PROPORTIONAL TO THE VELOCITY•Ke = VOLTAGE / VELOCITY

• Typically: Volts/1000 RPM

SPEED / TORQUE CURVEContinuous Operation• Defines motor mounted on an

aluminum plate of a certain size

to dissipate the motor heat

Intermittent Operation• Defines motor operation for a

pre-determined time based on motor design

TORQUE MULTIPLIER

Why use a gear box?• A gearbox uses mechanical advantage to increase output torque and reduce RPM• Improves the Inertia matching. Should the load Inertia significantly exceeds that of the motor it causes excessive overshoot and increase settling times. It greatly enhances system responsive time. • Reduces system cost by the need of smaller motors and drives.

INDUSTRIAL DC BRUSHLESS GEARMOTOR

PWM MOTOR DRIVEP = Pulse

W = Width

M = Modulation

How do they work?

Supplies the motor with high frequency power pulses (15 KHz to 35 KHz) whose width is proportional to the required power level as determined by the input command.

Since the power transistors are either completely “ON” or “OFF”, they experience dissipation only while they are switching or they are “ON” with a very low voltage drop, resulting in an efficiency of 85% to 95%

CLOSED LOOP SERVO SYSTEM

Parameter requirements for motor system selection:• Load Weight• Load Inertia• Distance & Time from position A to B• Velocity Profile • Gearbox Ratio • Inertia Matching • Power Available
