Motors

Training material – DC and EC motors
Design, working principle and data sheets of the maxon DC and EC motors.

„Coreless“ maxon DC motor (presentation): Which are the specific advantages of the coreless design compared to a conventional DC motor? How is the motor designed and which are the underlying physical principles? What are the differences between precious metal and graphite brushes and where are these two systems used?
Cut-away DC motor samples available as well.

Brushless maxon EC motor (presentation): How is the motor designed and which are the underlying physical principles? What kind of design variants do exist?  What are the differences between block and sinusoidal commutation and where are these two systems used?
Cut-away EC motor samples available as well.

Motor data and operating ranges of DC motors (E-Learning). Learn how to read and interpret motor data sheets.

maxon academy booklet „Principles and Properties of Highly Dynamic DC Miniature Motors“ by Otto Stemme and Peter Wolf. This booklet (approx. 80 pages) gives a fundamental description of coreless maxon DC and EC motors. Starting from the physical principals and the geometrical arrangements it deviates the main motor characteristics in an stringent way.
