The direct current motor is one of the first machines for converting electrical power into mechanical powerDc motors The direct current motor is one of the first machines for converting electrical power into mechanical power. Permanent magnet direct current motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy through the interaction of two magnet fields. One field is produced by a permanent magnet assembly; the other field is produced by an electrical current flowing in the motor windings. These two fields result in a torque which tends to rotate the rotor. As the rotor turns, the current in the windings is commutated to produce a continuous torque output. The stationary electromagnetic field of the motor can be wire-wound like the armature (called a wound-field motor) or can be made up of permanent magnets (called a permanent magnet motor). In either style (wound-field or permanent magnet) the commutator acts as half of a mechanical switch and rotates with the armature as it turns. The commutator is composed of conductive segments (called bars), usually made of copper, which represent the termination of individual coils of wire distributed around the armature. The second half of the mechanical switch is completed by the brushes. These brushes typically remain stationary with the motor’s housing but ride on the rotating commutator. As electrical energy passes through the brushes and consequently through the armature a torsion force is generated as a reaction between the motor’s field and the armature causing the motor’s armature to run. As the armature turns, the brushes switch adjacent bars on the commutator. This switching action transfers the electrical energy to an adjacent winding on the armature which in turn perpetuates the torsion motion of the armature. Permanent magnet motors are probably the most commonly used DC motors, but there are some other types of DC motors. DC motors operate from a direct current power source. Movement of the magnetic field is achieved by switching current between coils within the motor. This action is called “commutation”. You can use dc-brush motors in a in a variety of applications. A simple permanent-magnet dc motor is an essential element in a variety of products, such as toys, servo mechanisms, valve actuators, robots and automotive electronics. There are several typical advantages of a PM motor. When compared to AC or wound-field DC motors, PM motors are usually physically smaller in overall size and lighter for a given power rating. Furthermore, since the motor’s field, created by the permanent magnet, is constant, the relationship between torque and speed is very linear. A PM motor can provide relatively high torque at low speeds and PM field provides disadvantages though, those mostly being high current during a stall condition and during circuitry. Furthermore, some magnet materials can be damaged when subjected to excessive heat and some loose field strength if the motor is disassembled.
