| What does the turns mean on a electric motor? A turn is number of times the wire inside the motor is wrapped around the armature poles. Stock motors have 27 wraps (or turns) of 22 gauge wire, that is, 22 gauge wire wrapped around the armature poles 27 times. Modified motors can have as low as 5 or 6 turns or as many as 20 to 25.o have more comm wear. What does single, double, triple, or quadruple mean on a modified motor?A Single has one thick wire, a Double is a two thinner wires, a Triple has three thinner wires than the Double, a Quad has four thinner wires, and so on. So, an 8 Double will have TWO (Double) thin wires wrapped around the pole 8 times. A 12 Triple will have THREE (Triple) wires wrapped around the pole 12 times, and the 10 Single will have ONE (Single) thick wire wrapped around the pole 10 times. More of that on the link |

could you use aluminum for the armature because it is non ferrous and would rotate easier

I'm a motor rewind newb myself - but I get the idea somewhat. Might want to read up on how electro magnets work to have a better understanding of the principals involved here. An electric motor is sortof like a (in our case anyway) 3 pole electro magnet. These 3 poles are charged (+ -) in such an order that rotation is a byproduct. I get what you're saying though. lighter mass would spool up faster (like a lighter flywheel in a car). It just doesn't help here though. Why? here -> The ferromagnetic core magnifies the magnetic field to thousands of times the strength of the field of the coil alone, due to the high magnetic permeability μ of the ferromagnetic material Copied from here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnet Last edited by Sparky2; 08-03-2009 at 01:18 AM. |
