For a no motor designer you did EXTREMELY impressive. But let me tell you a couple of things: Flat magnets, though can reduce torque up to 10%, won't make that much of a difference like you had. The motor should have pulled if everything else is ok. - Check if hall effect sensors are deep enough in the stator core so they are in front of the rotor magnets even if there is some misalignment; - check if the hall combination is correct, there are two of them which will spin the motor but one will produce torque; - double check magnet polarity.

when the motor failed to turn I was screaming YOU WIRED IT WRONG!!! not it was wound wrong. Not the magnets were wrong. He 1000000% wired it wrong. Just because some wire configuration can spin the motor with no load doesn't mean that's the correct way to wire it up. He probably later wired it correctly by accident and then blamed it on the rotor

Used to work in a shop running mills and lathes that did prototype work. That was a good deal. I think the JB weld putty is what threw your DIY rotor off, possibly the epoxy as well. You really need non-ferrous epoxies so you don't throw off the magnetic fields. Convert to belt drive or put a chain tensioner on the bike as well.

@xymaryai8283 Ай бұрын

it is super awesome to do a project this ambitious to learn, but it was pointless, the only thing left from the starter was the casing, i wanted to learn more about *why* a starter makes for a bad or good motor, and how to remanufacture it to be better, not that an almost from scratch ameteur BLDC motor is indeed an ameteur BLDC motor. keeping the old stator coils and rotor and instead improving the cooling and winding, maybe by machining the large few stator coils into double or triple the electromagnets would have been much more interesting

@charlesstaton8104 Ай бұрын

@@xymaryai8283 Starter motors seem like a ton of power in a tiny package, and therefore an excellent candidate for an EV project. Not so.. a starter motor isn't a good EV motor because where most motors are rated for continuous duty, a starter is rated for intermittent duty. A starter might be rated (example) 5kW but if it were rated by the same criteria as other motors it probably couldn't claim to be more than 1kW. Starter motors make bad EV motors because you buy a 1kW motor to handle the job of a 5kW motor, because it claimed to be a 5kW motor. They have a LOT of torque in a small package but can't output it continuously without burning up. Like a drill. A corded or cordless drill might have enough torque to snap your wrist, but if you've ever used one at that torque level for more than a few seconds you probably know what it means to let the magic smoke out of a power tool. For an EV motor you need to choose a motor that is rated for continuous output. That motor is going to be a lot bigger than its similarly rated starter motor because it's ACTUALLY capable of delivering the rated power without going up in flames. If you wanted to remanufacture a starter motor to be a good EV motor all you would need to do is scratch off the rating plate and make a new one that reflects how much power it can actually output continuously without overheating. Then you will find that it is not the magical tiny powerhouse that it seemed. Its size is comparable to other motors with similar ratings.

*Respect!* I tried to use a small 400kv bldc motor to drive my bike using emery paper on the outrunner bell pressed against the back tyre. It worked for a few meters and burnt out! Was incredibly hot to touch, but fortunately it looked like the magnets survived. It took a while - sourcing the right AWG of wire, 15T x 4 strands, 12 poies and 14 magnets, and finding a hydraulic press to release the core, took photos to record disassembly and managed to recreate winding layout and it worked first time! Would have been much easier to buy a new one, but the satisfaction was priceless!

I've thought of many ways to make cheap motors, but unless your goal is just clicks for your channel (which is obviously the goal of many channels..) then you really need to think of where you can get cheap or almost free motors that are easy to modify. btw, I actually worked on converting a brushed dc motor into brushless. I suggest you start looking for big ceiling fans, almost free. These are a great choice, but in my efforts I discovered many have the number of poles not divisible by three, so no 3 phase. However, I've also learned that you don't have to build a 3-phase brushless motor! You can build a 4-phase one. A 3phase is just easier and uses less components, but that means NOTHING when you are doing it yourself for a one-off prototype. The other option that is now become easy to find is direct drive washing machines, they have large diameter 3 phase motors in them that can be modified for lots of power.

You should have spent your money getting a dia EDM cut so you could press thin sheets of iron rather than just one solid block. You need sheets because eddie current drastically increases permetivity of the magnet field. Would have been similar outlay, but you could make multiple motors with one dia. Maybe ring the edm company up and ask then if they have your off cut ;)

One possibility to better approximate an arc magnet is to use several narrower bar magnets. This is similar to how we approximate a smooth curve as a bunch of short line segments. I don't know if you could find magnets of those dimensions, but I would suspect it might be easier than finding those large bars. You can use almost any size you want if you don't mind sticking a bunch of them together along either the width or the length. The strength of a magnet is roughly the same as its N value. N42 is somewhere in the middle. You could get N52 or even N55, but that's only 25% stronger - not enough to explain the difference between your rotor and the one from the other BLDC motor.

LOVE these pointless projects! Great job! I once cut apart the stator of a brushed inrunner motor (speed 300) and glued the stators to the inside of the can. Then put two magnets on a shaft and slapped it in there. Amazingly the motor runs and even flies a model plane! Oh and you should never push bearings in place from the opposite race. Always press on the race that you are fitting to avoid axial loads on the balls/races.

@TimpBizkit 9 күн бұрын

I remember my starter motor powered wooden go-kart thing I made as a kid and yes the motor overheated and died. The first one was terrible. It had a wooden broom pole axel with no bearings that would rub through with friction. It had a toothed fan belt that happened to fit the starter motor tooth profile and went to two wooden discs on the back broompole axle and nails were between them to grip the fan belt. When I first hooked it up it went backwards and because starter motors have an electromagnet instead of a permanent magnet, changing the polarity does nothing so I had to saw out the motor mount and change it. The second 5 wheeler creation where the main wheels are old pram wheels in the go kart frame, and the starter motor was on a fifth wheel with a thinner bolt axle so less friction was better. It also had a relay so didn't have to connect to the sparky battery. The relay and motor also eventually blew. Neither were very efficient on battery life.

If you have an interest, you could redo your rotor by milling flats for the magnets, then using soft iron 'shims' on top of the magnets to minimize the radial gap. Minimize the thickness of the shims to the degree possible. The shims will be approximately the same dimensions as the magnets with a flat side to yh magnet and a creved side towards the stator. Would be interesting to see what kind of improvement you could make with this arrangement using the same magnets

Just use the brushed starter motor as is and operate it using a mosfet based PWM chopper. Thats it. Your DIY bike will break before the coal brushes of the starter motor wear. Also these brushes can be changed. If you rotate the holder of the brushes against the case you can optimize torque and speed. Also you can have a lever to move it if needed. So keep things simple and operational.

@thomassutrina8296 8 күн бұрын

My guess is that the iron in JB weld is under 20% which means you need to also add the air gap on the epoxy side. Thus the real air gap is the maximum you measured. I come to this conclusion because that is about the content in thermal conductive epoxy. Second the rotor didn't need laminated steel or even great magnetic steel since the field is fixed it it. This would also have opened up other layouts of a rotor to reduce the air gap by having steel poles. One thing nice about epoxy or other glues is that when you get them hot they loose their strength or get brittle which is what epoxy does. For machining the magnets could be replaced by steel plates. Disassembled and up together with the magnets.

Dealing with the heat problem, I made a tubing that fits snugly outside the starter. Then used a larger tube with rings on the ends to keep water inside tubing which got radial fins on the outside. This would keep the motor cool for at least a half hour. But the low HP of the starter motor made this an not so perfect unit. I should of just made me a ground up build like you did fella.
