Leeson 109103.00 C4D18FK3 magnet motor is used in conveyor systems, robotics and automated machinery to offer adjustable speed and torque, making them suitable for tasks requiring accurate motion control.
Working Mechanism:
- Leeson 109103.00 C4D18FK3 permanent magnet motor operates using an armature, a coil of wire within a magnetic field. When connected to a direct current (DC) power source, the armature generates a magnetic force that interacts with the fixed magnetic field, causing it to rotate.
- The commutator and brushes ensure the current direction reverses, sustaining rotation. This mechanism transforms electrical energy into mechanical motion.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How is speed control achieved in this permanent magnet motor?
A. Speed control is achieved by adjusting the voltage applied to the motor. Increasing the voltage increases the speed, while decreasing it slows down the motor's rotation.
Q. What factors should be considered when selecting a PMDC motor?
A. Major factors include torque requirements, speed range, power supply voltage, physical dimensions, duty cycle, efficiency and environmental conditions.
Q. How do PMDC motors differ from stepper motors?
A. PMDC motors provide continuous rotation and are commonly used for variable speed applications. Stepper motors move in discrete steps and are used in applications that require precise position control, such as 3D printers and CNC machines.
