Hi!
This is a 3 phase Axial Flux Motor. I would like to use an encoder on one of the output shafts (it has two, one on either end) to send data to a controller as well. It’s use case right now is purely proof of concept. This is my first in-house designed motor and I’m trying my best to eliminate variables such as control issues or solutions. This more will be run for mostly torque figure testing as well as efficiency to test the effectiveness of my construction methods. it is made from PLA+ plastic so it’s not fit for “proper” use. In terms of if I am willing to compensate someone monetarily, on this one I am more so looking for guidance to be pointed in the direction of being able to supply the 450w of power I will need through the FETs. I noticed many times on high power loads that many mosfets will be used but I am having trouble understanding how to properly drive all of these and integrate the FOC library. I can certainly design the PCB, but I do need some help getting there. In terms of the full scale model which is a high HP axial flux, that one I will be consulting a few people for.
I’ve attached a couple of images of the coreless motor design. It’s nothing new but it’s mine.
Thanks
