Simple Electric DC Motor

This is a fully functional 3D-printable model of a DC electric motor, designed for educational purposes and engineering enthusiasts. This project brings physics to life, demonstrating the principles of electromagnetism, magnetic field interaction, and the mechanical function of a commutator. The model is optimized for 3D printing and manual assembly, allowing for a clear view of all moving parts in action. Key Features: Functional Design: Includes a dedicated rotor, stator with magnet slots, and a tactile commutation system. Educational Tool: Perfect for teaching Faraday’s Law and Fleming’s Left-Hand Rule in a classroom or home setting. Bearing Support: Designed for 16mm outer diameter bearings to ensure smooth rotation and minimal friction. Modular Stator: The frame allows for the insertion of up to three high-strength magnets (N52) on each side to experiment with torque and speed. Bill of Materials (BOM): Magnet Wire: Enamelled copper wire (~0.22mm diameter). 400 to 600 turns are rec
