motor or PMDC motor. These types of motor are essentially simple in construction.
These motors are commonly used as starter motor in automobiles, windshield
wipers, washer, for blowers used in heaters and air conditioners, to raise and lower
windows, it also extensively used in toys. As the magnetic field strength of a
permanent magnet is fixed it cannot be controlled externally, field control of this
type of dc motor cannot be possible. Thus permanent magnet dc motor is used
where there is no need of speed control of motor by means of controlling its field.
Small fractional and sub fractional kW motors now constructed with permanent
magnet.
Construction of Permanent Magnet DC Motor or PMDC Motor
Rotor: The rotor of pmdc motor is similar to other DC motor. The rotor or armature
of permanent magnet dc motor also consists of core, windings and commutator.
Armature core is made of number of varnish insulated, slotted circular lamination of
steel sheets. By fixing these circular steel sheets one by one, a cylindrical shaped
slotted armature core is formed. The varnish insulated laminated steel sheets are
used to reduce eddy current loss in armature of permanent magnet dc motor. These
slots on the outer periphery of the armature core are used for housing armature
conductors in them. The armature conductors are connected in a suitable manner
which gives rise to armature winding. The end terminals of the winding are
connected to the commutator segments placed on the motor shaft. Like other dc
motor, carbon or graphite brushes are placed with spring pressure on the
commutator segments to supply current to the armature.
Working Principle of Permanent Magnet DC Motor or PMDC Motor
As we said earlier the working principle of PMDC motor is just similar to the
generalworking principle of DC motor. That is when a carrying conductor comes
inside a magnetic field, a mechanical force will be experienced by the conductor and
the direction of this force is governed by Flemings left hand rule. As in a permanent
magnet dc motor, the armature is placed inside the magnetic field of permanent
magnet; the armature rotates in the direction of the generated force. Here each
conductor of the armature experiences the mechanical force F = B.I.L Newton where
B is the magnetic field strength in Tesla (weber / m2), I is the current in Ampere
flowing through that conductor and L is length of the conductor in metre comes
under the magnetic field. Each conductor of the armature experiences a force and
the compilation of those forces produces a torque, which tends to rotate the
armature.

DC Motors
Basic configuration
Real DC motors have more than two windings and commutator segments, for
generation of a more constant torque.
Picture below shows a 5 segment design (HC685LG).
Commutator segments are made from copper. This motor above has 3 segments.
Brushes are made from precious metal (metal finger leaf brush) or carbon (graphite
brush).
Precious metal brush features:
Used for high power , high speed, frequent starting, high lifetime, high
voltage.
Designed as carbon leaf brush or cage brush (for especial high lifetime).
Cage brushes:
Brushes can be shifted by some small angle in reference to the permanent magnet
(brush offset). That can favor one direction of rotation, but the other direction has
higher sparkling and worse performance.
The stall torque for the favor rotation will be less, but the max. efficiency point will
be higher.
JE has both options, to provide offset and no offset (zero oriented) according to the
customer application. Existing JE motor codes are designed for an offset or not, must
be checked if to use them for new application.
Permanent magnets
The windings are located in slots, around the rotor silicon steel. For reduction of
eddy current losses, the rotor steel is made of sheets, with insulation layer between
(lamination stack).
Keeper ring
JE adds a soft iron sheet around the motor housing, for many motors. It reduces the magnetic circuit resistance and improves
performance.

Manufacturing tolerance
Rated operating point (rated torque) is defined for continuous duty cycle operation,
usually.But motor design can be also made for low duty cycle operation or short time
operation at rated point, especially for high speed motors.
Rated point is located at point of max.efficiency or between point of max.efficiency
and point of max output power.
Lower duty cycle operation allows higher torque load (overload).
The speed curve reduces proportional to the voltage. Vice versa, it increases with
rising voltage (but to consider reduced lifetime or even thermal overloading of the
motor).
This is valid within limits, about +-50% decrease/increase of voltage.
HVDC motors can be connected to mains supply voltage level 120 Vac or 230 Vac. JE
has special expertise to design motor components accordingly, especially the
commutator assembly.

Resolvers
JE offers a range of several optical encoders.
Basic principle is:
A slotted wheel or a black/transparent strip photo print is rotating with the motor
shaft.
A photosensor provides a sinuswave or pulse pattern, that follows the speed of the
motor.
Output signal can be analog (0...3.3Vac) or digital (0...3.3 Vdc or 0...5Vdc).
One signal or two signals phase shifted 90 (enabling detection of direction of
rotation ; allows 4x resolution)
Several options for resolution. Terminology: CPR (Counts Per Revolution) and LPI (Lines Per Inch).
Examples:
Permanent magnet (PM) DC motors were introduced in the 19th century but did not
earn widespread acceptance due to the poor quality of magnetic materials (e.g.,
steel and tungsten steel) that were then available. So, early motor designers turned
to electromagnetic field excitation, which became the standard until recently.
shunt motors and their speed load characteristics are more linear and predictable.
Torque varies a lot with speed, ranging from maximum (stall torque at zero speed) to
zero torque at maximum (no load speed). An increase in torque requires a decrease
in angular velocity and vice versa.
Maintenance
Reduced maintenance is one of the primary advantages of permanent magnet DC
motors over wound DC motors. Since the commutator and brush assemblies of
wound motors are not used in PM DC motors, all the maintenance and related-costs
associated to servicing these motor components is eliminated. The maintenance
amounts to cleaning, ensuring clear ventilation pathways and bearing replacements,
as appropriate.
Applications
Permanent magnet DC motors have been used in power ranges from the milliwatts
(mW) to megawatts (MW), but are primarily known for fractional horsepower
applications. Brushless DC motors are gaining the most market share. This is the
result of advances in control electronics as well as PM quality. The automotive
industry uses a large number of PM DC commutator motors, which can vary from a
few in an inexpensive car to about 100 in a luxury car. PM brushless DC motors are
now recognized as the best propulsion motor for electric hybrid road vehicles. For
industrial applications, permanent magnet DC motors are seeing market adoption in
applications, such as pumps, fans, blowers, compressors, centrifuges, mills, hoists,
handling systems, machine tools, servo drives, elevators, light railways, missiles,
radar, satellites, dentist drills, electric wheel chairs, artificial heart motors and power
tools.
