Also the way he mounted the magnets in the steel part is shorting them, it would be better to have a magnetic plate as a flux carrier and sandwich the four holes on top made from pcb material so N-S of the magnets is not connected via magnetically conductive material.

@ Carl Bugeja & Robert F You are conflating Iron and Steel, you should use coolant with STEEL, Iron is self lubricating because of its high carbon content which acts like graphite during the cutting process.

One of the great things about online forums is that you can get a lot of good advice from people who have been there, done that. Recently, someone asked how to make a PCB motor and got a lot of great responses. Some people suggested using permanent magnets, but others warned that hitting them with a machining bit reduces their strength. It's a good idea to use coolant when machining iron because it helps to keep the heat down and prevents the workpiece from warping.

To encourage air movement through the PCB with holes, small air vanes can be added to the sides of your stater. This will create a more efficient system by increasing the amount of air that is able to flow through the PCB. Additionally, this will also help cool the motor by drawing in cooler air from outside the enclosure.

For calculating torque, you should instead make an inertial dynamometer. Basically a fly wheel that you attach to and spin up with the motor and monitor RPM, based on it's angular acceleration and the fly wheel's known polar moment of inertia, you can build a torque vs. speed curve that's much more accurate. Ideally this should be done using 2 fly wheels of different mass so that you can calibrate out the rotor's inertia, but if the rotor's inertia is much less than the flywheel or the accuracy needed is low, then this can be done with only 1

I have worked a little with a company that is makes PCB motors commercially. The primary engineering challenge is heat removal, the method you are using is pretty much the way to do it. The next step is to add an aluminum housing as a much larger heatsink. The rotor is typically on both sides on the PCB. Two bearings further apart assists in removing wobble of the rotor. The next engineering challenge is that you get a very low copper to rotor ratio. One way to get around this is making a motor with a very large outer diameter, the other is to sandwich multiple together. By having a stack, you can utilize the same rotor magnet on both sides on a sandwiched PCB. From a power/efficiency compared to weight, these motors are not competitive with traditional wound motors, however I see a future for low cost designs where size and weight is not as critical. Using an extruded heatsink ring that mounts to the end would allow the assembly to easily scale up or down my increasing length with common componentry sandwiched together.

@phoebed5333

I think carbide will still do better with cast iron over HSS - HSS wants a lower SFM thus lower RPM during cutting or it tends to burn up. The Othermill doesn't spin slower than 10k- whereas I'd want to be cutting at less than half that RPM for a .125" endmill on a regular milling machine. Coolant could definitely help with the issue of burn up - spraying a bit of WD40 or a cutting lubricant can also work in a pinch.

Hi Carl. If you extend the idea of decreasing magnetic reluctance from your iron rotor to the stator you could stick a tile of high frequency ferrite material to the opposite side of the stator. I reckon you should get significantly more torque that way. But since you then also increase PCB coil inductance you most likely will decrease the motor Kv value so you will the need a higher supply voltage to maintain max rpm. Looking forward to your next improved motor!

Great work! Good idea to use printed fixtures. About the bearing: When journalling a shaft using deep groove radial ball bearings, you need to use two of them, not just one (unless it is a cross roller bearing, which is not available in such small sizes). In your case you could get away with stacking one on top of the other. This would get rid of that wobble and should improve performance as fluctuations in the air gap distance would be reduced. Also, it is best to press the magnets in; a convenient way is to use a small pillar drill.

At this moment, KICAD lacks on some features comparing to Altium, but the kicad developers make great improvements on each version. I have already used it in some professional projects. More than 10 years ago Eagle was a promising tool, you had a Free Software version (even available in Ubuntu 2008 packages). But since about 2017, they changed their strategy, they were bought by Autodesk, and from version 4.7 to 9, they have not improved anything at all. They have only made an ANNUAL PAYMENT LICENSE with very annoying authentication system by smarthphone and time limited code. And continues without proper hierarchical design. KiCAD instead has improved remarkably from version 3 to 5, has hierarchical design, trace length matching (this works very well, so this brings you the possibility to digital high speed design), and python scripting. If Kicad continues to improve, we will soon have a tool capable of competing directly with Altium.

No, still goes for exotic magnets. You reduce their strength. Those definitely need to be pressed in. The same with the bearing, but for different reasons. Ball bearings are designed to take a radial load, not an axial load. Hitting it in can deflect the cage and cause the rolling drag to increase.

Magnets have been around for centuries and are still popular today. However, magnets may not be the best idea for making PCBs or motors. Magnets can be very strong and can easily damage or pull apart delicate parts. In addition, they can be difficult to remove if they are accidentally attached to a component. Magnets should only be used if there is no other way to hold a component in place.

Nice work sir! Keep this motor idea in mind. The number 1 killer of all motors is heat. When ever you can, find the best way dissipate heat. Air flow will provide the cooling for sure. Your current changes will change the temp. Also as you found. Hint - Standard AC motors use their rotor (on an ODP motor) as the fan for air flow. Using both rotor and stator design, in harmony, you can create the optimum airflow you may need.

Bonus points if you add a second pcb board that mounts to the first with another press fit bearing and mounting holes so you can mate this to a planetary (or other) gear box. That will allow this to easily drive your 2wd robot while getting more consistant readings/results. If this comes across as rude or intrusive I appologize.

There are many new improvements with PCB Motor. For starters, the unboxing experience is much better. The initial testing yielded good results, and the iron rotor provides significantly more torque. Additionally, the shaft mount makes it much easier to install and use. Finally, the torque testing showed that this motor is extremely powerful. Overall, these new features make PCB Motor a much better product.

Yep, sandwiched steel plates is the traditional way to avoid eddy currents in motors . A very traditional brushless design is to have a rotor made of stacked plates separated by oxidation, dipped in conductive aluminium to form shorted rotor windings that make the rotor respond to the 3 phase rotating magnetic field from the stator. Thus there are no permanent magnets and the rotor is formed from stacked plates cut/stamped into a designed shape, clamped and dipped.

awesome project! I think there could be another reason, why temps improve with higher speeds: the faster magnets move over the coils, the more they themselfs will actually induce a voltage, opposing the driving voltage. that will result in lower currents, and is usually the reason why typical electric motors have the highest torque at start up (higher current- stronger magnetic field - more torque). you could easily test that by measuring the amps drawn at different speeds.

I originally sent to oshcut for some custom stator lamination. They were interested in attempting the material

Awesome as always! I wonder if its worth replacing the screw and ball bearing with a bronze bearing and some parts created on a lathe - more space for magnets and less wobbling? :)

You need magnetic chuck for such devours. Or you need to have custom designed work holding, soft jaw vice.

Great video! Perhaps with thinner magnets you could layer the pcbs to get more torque!

Use super glue to hold the parts you want to machine, at end try breaking the glue bond or dissolve the glue. Never use double sided tape for small contact area parts.

I'd recommend to set up design rules in Altium Designer to avoid silly mistakes in future. Design rule check really helps to find either undesired net connections or layout that goes beyond manufacturer's capabilities.

Iron disk under the coils Iron stator And multiple thin PCBs stacked but with thicker copper if that's possible

You should create a tiny wave (harmonic) reducer to fit on your motor. It will give huge torque

Why don't you use a powerful magnets on the other side to keep the iron stable while drilling. Good job. Thank you for sharing your innovations with us
