BRUSH DC MOTORS TURNING MORE ADVANCED Off-the-shelf brush-commutated DC motors typically tend to serve as a starting point, because virtually every application for a motor carries particular design and performance criteria to be accommodated. Motor manufacturers usually address these criteria by customizing products with components to satisfy the demands. An end-user thereby gains a motor designed to perform as required and, in the process, others ultimately may benefit if and when a custom component becomes standard. Many innovations in motor technology, in fact, have originated as specific solutions to specific customer challenges. Innovations have further been driven by overall marketplace needs. As examples, motor manufacturers have been obliged to offer more power in smaller packages in the race to keep pace with miniaturization; motor designs have incorporated new components in new ways to help extend motor life; and new or improved materials have been tapped with the goals to promote motor quality and output. All permanent magnet DC motors, of course, operate similarly by converting electrical energy into mechanical energy through the interaction of two magnetic fields. One field is produced by a permanent magnet assembly; the other field is produced by an electrical current flowing in the motor windings. The relationship between these two fields results in a torque that tends to rotate the rotor. As the rotor turns, the current in the windings is commutated, or switched, to produce a continuous torque output. Beyond these basics, however, todays (and tomorrows) brush-commutated DC motors continue to move in highly advanced directions. Brushing Up on Motor Life
