What Are Micro Motors?
In our daily lives, small motors (generally less than 100 watts in output) are incorporated in various products, and motors with an output of 3 watts or less are called "micro motors."
Micro motors are used in industrial fields that require advanced technology, such as medical precision equipment and various parts of state-of-the-art automobiles.
The operating system of micro motors is basically the same as that of small motors, and brushless motors (brushless electric motors) and DC motors (DC electric motors), which are utilized in home appliances such as air conditioners, microwave ovens, and refrigerators, and cooling fans for personal computers and servers, are commonly used.
Applications of Micro Motors
In general, micro motors require high output per dimension and weight, as well as high efficiency, controllability, and reliability.
Micro motors are used in audio equipment, toys, automotive parts, and recently in vibration motors for cell phones. Micro motors used in cellular phones, in particular, use direct current (DC) motors so that they can be powered by batteries.
Micro motors (dental electric engines) are also built into handpieces for dental treatment, with rotational speeds ranging from 100 to 40,000 rpm.
The high torque of micro motors is also suitable for adjusting and polishing dental restorations and prosthetics.
Principles of Micro Motors
The most commonly used micro motors are DC motors.
This is a motor that is driven by a DC power source. A DC commutator motor (DC motor with brushes) is one in which the commutator and brushes play a central role when the rotor goes around the field of the stator.
Furthermore, there is also a brushless motor, which can be driven without rotating coils by replacing the mechanical commutator (brushes) of a conventional motor with a semiconductor.
The rotor portion is a permanent magnet, and because of this difference in mounting method, they are classified into the "surface magnet type," in which a permanent magnet is attached to the outer circumference of the rotor, and the "embedded magnet type," in which a permanent magnet is embedded in the inside of the rotor.
In addition, a magnetic pole sensor is used to detect the N and S poles.
Brushless motors generally refer mostly to brushless DC motors, which are also classified into two types: inner-rotor type and outer-rotor type.
The inner-rotor type has superior controllability, while the outer-rotor type excels in maintaining stable rotation.
