Mr Snooze Fantastic Job. Didn't It Run Sweet. The Winding Machine Is Brilliant. This Has To Be The Best Snooze Challenge Yet. ( Loved The Clocks Ticking In The Background) 😁 Your Workmanship Is Outstanding It Made The Other One Look Silly By Comparison.

Excellent work Mr Snooze! There's another thing you might want to look at - the plastic 'spider' commonly develops a slight fault on one of the brush mounting holes - the one without the copper strip through the hole often wears (melts?) the plastic and the hole ends up squarer than it should be. This has the effect of the brush not aligning with the correct point on the commutator, leading to running issues. I saw a solution by re-packing the hole to bring it down to correct size, on another channel, but can't remember where, possibly a 'Chambs123' repair ! The original video was for a motor that used the plastic bushes between worm and coil as bearings for the armature, so maybe not an issue where the armature is supported by end bearings. Your work so far seems promises to run very nicely anyway! Cheers. Mike

Awesome skills... your 3D winder looks the job... From my electrician background, star and delta windings are for 3 phase AC supply... I would be interested to learn if the 3 windings on this armature are as well... I am very impressed with how you got such a great outcome...👍👍
@MrSnooze Жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching, some Hornby Dublo and Wrenn armatures have one connection to the commutator and the other ends of the coils are connected to a common at the back of the armature. I'll have to try one of these as some point. Take care, all the best to you
@OOElectronics Жыл бұрын
Great result. Out of interest, did you check the unwound resistance of the wires before winding this time? The commutator resistance reading of circa 10R is what would be expected on a 3 pole motor with coil resistances of around 15 ohms so, on that basis, it's looking good. Looking forward to seeing it running on the super 4. Tom

Hi I did the same as well. Although the motor is only doing 1-2 rotations then coming to a halt. It makes sounds that it’s still trying to rotate. Any idea what this could be? Things to note would be: -made sure current was going through each pole by testing the resistance of the wire. -Made sure resistance of each pole was the same and also each pole has exactly the same amount of turns -Tested the commutator to make sure it was functioning correctly with a multimeter -Tested the two initial test points for shorts -Tested brushed for shorts Unwound wire and rewound new wire Coated armature with multiple layers to ensure no shorts would occur If you have any insights it would be appreciated greatly. Thank you!

Hi I wonder if you can advise me as to what may be my issue. I've just completed my first rewind of the similar motor in a triang class 37 I've used a 0.125mm winding wire. The armature took 250 winds. The motor was installed and ran well on the test track however when my friend tested it on his simple hornby oval operated with the hornby basic controller it ran well initially but then started to slow down untill it eventually ground to a halt and wouldn't move. He said there was an electrical smell I put this down to the windings heating up and burning off residual dirt or oil etc. But I have no idea why it would. please help I'm absolutely stumped on this one. 🙏

I forgot to add there is no capacitor or suppressor fitted it was like this when I got it.
@MrSnooze6 ай бұрын
Congratulations on your first rewind. It does sound like something has happened unfortunately. I would check the commutator first just in case some contamination has got on the brushes. Then take some resistance readings and check there is no short to the laminations. If still no good I wood unsolder the windings and check the resistance of each winding. I hope it's a simple fix but if there is a winding fault have another go. Don't be put off, It's fun mending these items. Take care, all the best to you
@djflipside1006 ай бұрын
I measured across each segment on the commutator I'm getting 7.5 on two and 7.4 on one so I'd say it's fairly close all over. I've had it running again this time the chasis has gotten really hot before the motor stopped and the brush carbon came detached from the brass arm. So I'm at a loss. Why is it getting so hot I guess is the starting point. 🤷♂️ Helllpppp. ☺

@@djflipside100 can you measure how much current it is drawing with an ammeter when it's running? It should be drawing no more than 300 milliamps. Have you remagnetised it after disassembly? Low magnet strength can cause these symptoms

I haven't, I was just going to do that when it gave up 😂 I'll get it back together again then try. I haven't done anything with the magnet I don't have a remagnetiser.
