Abstract: Permanent magnets brushless DC micro-motors are increasingly used in accurate
motion control applications and high precision positioning systems. Main problems
concerning their manufacture refer to design accuracy and adequate fabrication
technology. The study presented in the paper is based on both numerical analysis and
experimental assessment of operating characteristics of such a micro-motor with
surface mounted permanent magnets, specially conceived for an application in
aerospace technologies. An experimental prototype was manufactured based on
inventive design, originally tested and refined by simplified 2D numerical simulation.
More realistic 3D models are further developed aiming at the optimization of the motor,
according to application specific criteria (high torque, precision in speed control,
heating control etc.). The paper presents a 3D reduced model with inclined slots, used
in finding an adequate design for the minimization of the cogging torque.
