How to customize DC motor ?

DC motors is commonly used nowadays.It includes brushless motor, stepper motor, servo stepper etc. Because the applications are diversified, so are users’ requirements on motors. Therefore, users often need to customize DC motors. Due to varying degrees of knowledge about DC motors and industry products, customers may have many questions when communicating with manufacturers. In order to help everyone communicate with manufacturers more efficiently, the following points should be noted.

1.The main specifications for customizing DC motors

For example, basic information such as motor diameter, length, shaft diameter, voltage, and speed. If there are drawings or parameter tables, they can be directly sent to the manufacturer. So the engineer can quickly confirm whether the motor can be made.

2.The specific application of the motor

That is, what product the motor will be used on, what actions it will perform, and the working environment, etc. This information can help the engineer search for motor solutions for the industry application, which can accelerate the technical evaluation process.

3.The expected quantity of motors

Customizing motors takes a long time (especially when molding is required) and involves many processes. Therefore, manufacturers have certain requirements for the quantity of customized projects. If the quantity is very small, the customer will be informed that it is not necessary to customize the motor.

4. A complete project schedule

The motor manufacturers have many customize projects running at the same time, and facing different customer requirements. If there is a schedule table, engineers can arrange mold opening time, material cycle, first sample time, experimental cycle, customer installation testing, small batch production, trial production, and other stages in advance to meet the customer’s project progress.

5. Target price

It is best to inform the manufacturer if there are expected cost requirements and target unit prices. In this way, when evaluating motor solutions, the engineer can choose a suitable solution based on the unit price, thus avoiding situations where the motor meets the requirements but the cost is not acceptable.

The above points hope to provide some help on dc motor customization requirements, improve communication efficiency, and find suitable manufacturers.
