Advantages of aluminum motor housings

• Good heat dissipation: During the working process of the motor, energy will be converted, and a large part of it is converted into heat. We know that aluminum has good heat dissipation, and can quickly cool down the motor and last longer.
• Lightweight: Metal aluminum is very light. Using aluminum motor housing can reduce the weight of the entire motor. Easy to install and transport.
• Aluminum has good moldability. Aluminum has a higher elongation than iron, is easy to process, and has good plasticity. It can be made into a variety of shell shapes that meet the requirements, such as fin shape.
• The aluminum alloy motor casing can also reduce the vibration of the motor, reduce the noise, and has waterproof, dustproof, anti-corrosion and other protective functions.

Aluminum motor housings have good load-bearing capacity and heat dissipation effects and are widely used in industrial motors, automotive motors and other industries. Using aluminum as motor housings has great advantages.

Surface treatment options for motor housings

1. Surface brushing treatment：Metal drawing is a manufacturing process in which lines are repeatedly scraped out of aluminum sheets using sandpaper.
2. Electroplating electrophoresis treatment：Electroplating electrophoresis uses electrolysis to attach a metal film to the surface of metal or other material parts to prevent metal oxidation (such as rust) and improve wear resistance, conductivity, reflectivity, and corrosion resistance (copper sulfate etc.) and enhance aesthetics.
3. Surface grinding and polishing treatment：The polishing process is mainly divided into: mechanical polishing, chemical polishing, and electrolytic polishing. The aluminum motor casing is mechanically polished + electrolytic polished to achieve a stainless steel mirror effect.
4. Surface sand blasting and shot blasting treatment：Using the impact of high-speed sand flow to clean and roughen the metal surface can achieve a certain degree of cleanliness and different roughness on the surface of the workpiece, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the workpiece surface, thereby improving the fatigue resistance of the workpiece and increasing its and The adhesion between coatings extends the durability of the coating and is also beneficial to the leveling and decoration of the coating.

3. The housing is cooled using a liquid medium.
4. To meet strength requirements, the parts are cast under vacuum and then heat treated.

Features of Aluminum Die Casting Mold

• Capable of targeted and controlled mold filling.
• Optimum filling speed can be set according to the cross-section to be filled,
• The formation of oxides and gaseous impurities is minimized.
• By using multiple risers, the wall thickness build-up distributed in the casting can be optimally replenished and shrinkage holes are largely suppressed.

Advantages of using aluminum alloy for motor body

The advantages of aluminum alloy material are light weight, good heat dissipation performance, good thermal conductivity, good plasticity in die-casting process, higher elongation than iron, low noise, and good operational stability. Aluminum alloy material used in the motor body die-casting advantages have the following 4 points:

1. Good heat dissipation: motor in the working process, due to high speed operation, the motor itself produces high temperature need to release, we know that the heat capacity of aluminum is very strong, so aluminum alloy material is very suitable for die casting for motor body.
2. Make the motor lighter: metal aluminum is lighter in weight, and the weight of the whole machine can be reduced. Easy to install and carry.
3. Good plasticity: aluminum alloy material is lighter than steel, good thermal conductivity, good plasticity, can be die casting and elongation is higher than iron.
4. aluminium motor body light weight, low vibration, low noise, while waterproof, dustproof, anti-corrosion, energy saving, high performance, high efficiency, long service life.

The above are the advantages of aluminum alloy material used as motor body, of course, aluminum material also has its disadvantages, that is, high price, low hardness, more suitable for the device does not need to be very out of the place, such as motor cover, body.

Surface treatment

The surface treatment of aluminum alloy motor housings is also very important. Surface treatment can improve the quality, corrosion resistance and aesthetics of the motor housing. Common surface treatment methods include anodizing, electrophoretic coating, spraying and so on. Among them, anodizing is the most commonly used method, which can form a layer of oxygen coating and improve the corrosion resistance and hardness of the motor housing. Electrophoretic coating and spraying are suitable for making colorful and beautiful motor shells.

6. What is the maintenance method for aluminum die cast motor bodies?

Maintaining an aluminum die casting motor body usually includes regularly inspecting surfaces for damage, cleaning impurities, and keeping cooling passages clear.

① The use environment of aluminum die-casting motor shell should always adhere to the dry, motor appearance should be kept clean, the air inlet should not be obstructed by dust, fibers and so on.
② when the motor of the thermal maintenance of continuous action, should identify the fault from the motor or overload or maintenance device setting value is too low, eliminate the fault before putting into operation.
③ Good lubrication should be ensured during the operation of the motor. General motor operation 5000 hours or so, that should be supplemented or replaced grease, found in operation bearing overheating or lubrication metamorphosis, hydraulic timely change grease. Replacement of grease, should remove the old lubricant, and gasoline to wash the bearings and bearing cover oil groove, and then ZL-3 lithium grease filling the cavity between the inner and outer rings of the bearing 1/2 to 2 pole, 2/3 to 468 pole.
④ When the life of the bearings ends, the vibration and noise of the motor operation will increase obviously, check the radial clearance of the bearings to reach the following values, then the bearings should be replaced.
⑤ When assembling the motor, it is OK to remove the rotor from either the shaft extension or non-extension end. If it is not necessary to remove the fan, it is more convenient to remove the rotor from the non-extended end. When removing the rotor from the stator, prevent damage to the stator windings or insulation.

When replacing the winding, it is necessary to note down the form, size and number of turns of the original winding, wire gauge, etc. When these data are lost, they should be obtained from the manufacturer. Changing the original design of the winding at will will often deteriorate the performance of a certain item or items of the motor, or even make it impossible to use.

What are motor housings made of?

The material of the motor casing is usually made of steel, cast aluminum, cast copper and other metal materials, which have the characteristics of high strength, high rigidity and high protection. The choice of specific materials mainly depends on the usage scenarios and needs of the motor. At Mindwell, the material we use most currently is aluminum.

One of the most popular materials for motor casings is cast iron, which has the benefits of being both inexpensive and highly durable. Gray cast iron or ductile iron are typically used to make cast iron casings, and to enhance their look and resistance to corrosion, the surface is typically plastic-sprayed or painted. However, its drawback is that its weight interferes with the motor’s lightweight construction.

Because of its light weight and excellent heat dissipation, the aluminum alloy case is a superb choice for producing compact or high-speed motors. Aluminum alloys 6061 and ADC12 are often used. These materials may be formed and have high processing qualities. Their surface can be anodized to increase its aesthetic appeal and resistance to corrosion.
Furthermore, motor casings can be made from a variety of unique plastic or composite materials in addition to metal. These non-metallic materials are typically employed in unique settings or under budgetary constraints.

in conclusion

A dependable and adaptable motor housing option are aluminum castings for motor housings. It is a great option for many applications due to its strength, resistance to corrosion, capacity for heat dissipation, and low weight. By means of our customisation service, motor housing castings may be tailored to individual needs, guaranteeing peak efficiency and functionality. Our aluminum motor housing castings offer premium solutions that satisfy the demands of many sectors, whether they be for automotive, industrial, or aerospace applications.
