How to choose a suitable deceleration motor
A reduction motor is a combination of the functions of an electric motor and a gearbox, which can divide the complete rotation into multiple steps. As long as the size of the motor meets the application requirements, the position of the motor can be precisely controlled without any feedback mechanism. Micro motors are similar to switched reluctance motors.

Micro motors utilize the operating theory of magnets, and their structure provides electrical pulses to rotate the motor shaft a precise distance. Electrons have eight poles, while rotors have six poles. The rotor will require a pulse to move in order to complete a complete rotation, or alternatively, for each electrical pulse received by the motor, the rotor will move precisely
1、 Firstly, it is necessary to understand one's own application requirements.
The first step in selecting a deceleration motor is to check the application requirements, which include but are not limited to the following:
General requirements: installation type and size, cantilever and lateral load, and lubrication type.
Input power supply: voltage, frequency (Hz), maximum current (ampere), and control type.
Specifications of the deceleration motor: size, weight, required noise level, expected lifespan, and maintenance level.
Gearmotor performance: speed, torque, duty cycle, horsepower, starting and running torque (full load).
Operating environment: application and environmental temperature, as well as inlet protection level.
2、 Choose the appropriate motor.
According to the application requirements list, compare different types of motor specifications, such as universal, brushless DC, AC induction, or permanent magnet reduction motors. Due to the unique performance and requirements of each application, we choose the appropriate motor based on our own needs.
3、 Understand the speed and torque requirements of the load to be driven.
To ensure that the deceleration motor is suitable for overdue demand, it is necessary to know the output speed, starting and running torque of the motor. Choosing the appropriate deceleration motor is a matter of matching the output speed and torque with the application requirements. The output speed is determined by the requirements of the machine, which should be known so that the starting and operating torque can be determined. After calculating the starting and running torque, use the manufacturer's torque, speed, and efficiency performance curves to find the motor that meets the requirements. Then review potential design limitations, including operating (full load) gearbox torque, input speed, gearbox strength, thermal characteristics, and duty cycle.
4、 Testing.
Once a deceleration motor is selected, it is important to conduct multiple tests to ensure that the motor operates well in typical operating environments. If the motor becomes overheated, too noisy, or experiences pressure, please repeat the motor selection process or contact the manufacturer.
