Lecture 2 – Motor
EML 2023Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering 2
Let’s answer 3 questions.
1. How is the motor held in place and how is it connected to the shaft that it is to rotate?
2. How does the encoder work and how is it physically connected to the motor?
3. How do the DAQ and motor driver work?
Motor Driver
desired position current
Computer and DAQ
Motor

DC Motor
• a typical DC motor can rotate at a top speed of 2600 rpm (43⅓ rev/sec)
• gearing is used which slows the speed of the output shaft, but increases the torque
• gear train• worm gear drive• epicyclic gear train

Design tip: DC motors usually operator at 10-30% of their stall torque. Motors that are subjected continuously to higher loads are more prone to mechanical failure or heat-related degradation.
