How to build your own PCBMotor using: |
|
Evaluation Kit - See the options in the tabel above |
|
Learn how to build your own PCBMotor using standard PCBs and standard manufacturing processes. We recommend an Evaluation Kit to fast-track your development effort. This enables a quick path to explore the possibilities of the PCBMotor in your specific application. The Evaluation Kit is ready-to-use with stator, rotor and driver and enables you to make a first mock-up of your application with a PCBMotor. Click here for order your Evaluation-kit now! |

Lab Kit |
|
| If you have an ongoing development project or want to further accelerate your development process, you could benefit from the Lab kit, click for order now. This includes extensive software features such as the frequency tracker option. The performance of the motor, i.e. speed and stall momentum, is closely related to the total DC current supplied to the output stage transformers. The optimum frequency can be determined by measuring the current as a function of frequency. The frequency tracker/sweep function has been designed for this purpose. |

Technology integrates motor and controller directly onto PCB

Hilleroed, Denmark— PCBMotor ApS has developed a technology that enables motors to be directly mounted onto a PCB along with the motor controller.
This patented technology can achieve a positioning accuracy of 100,000 steps per revolution using a high resolution sensor. PCBMotor technology can also achieve high resolutionif the motor is turned on in micro steps down to 0.1msec width each. The motor's operating frequency is 40kHz.
Applications include spectrum analysis, laseradjustment, microscopes and turntables.
PCBmotor consists of two parts. The first part is the stator which is milled out of the PCB and holds the actuators and electrical connecting circuit(the PCB can also hold the driver). The second part is the rotor, which is pressed onto the surface of the stator and delivers the mechanical output. A travelling wave is generated over the stator surface, acting as a flexible ring to produce elliptical motion on the rotor interface. The elliptical motion of the contact surface propels the rotor and the connected drive-shaft.
1mm X 1mm ceramic piezo components are mounted on the PCB. Operation depends on friction between the moving rotor and stator as well as amplitude and quality of the wave travelling on the stator. The rotor can turn between 60 and 120 RPM with torque ranging from 1 Nmm to more than 70 Nmm depending on the stator's diameter, number of piezo components and the rotor design and material.
