Basics of Motor Winding

Release time:2025/03/18

What is motor winding

The motor winding is the coiling of the conductor between the housing and the rotor. The conductor 

is a high-conductivity wire that can be wound in different thicknesses. 

The tighter the windings can be, the smaller the diameter of the wire. This changes the operation of the

motor significantly because it changes the magnetic field created when current flows through motor winding.

Influence of operating behavior on the functioning of a system

The motor winding depends on the thickness of the wires and their intensity. The more motor windings 

can be achieved with thinner wires. This can have several effects:

  • With each winding, the strength of the magnetic field increases.

  • The torque increases as a result.

  • The overall electromagnetic force of the system increases.

  • The counter voltage increases and the operating voltage is reduced as soon as speedsincrease. The

    properties of the motor windings are already a hint to their application. The magnetic field strength

    is high and can generate a high torque at low speeds. The torque decreases as the speed increases

    due to the decreasing counter voltage.

  • Electrical resistance also causes greater heat loss. This calls for appropriate cooling.

 

Applications that resulted

Applications resulting from motor winding advancements span across various industries, enhancing efficiency

and performance in numerous fields. In industrial automation, precisely wound motors power conveyor belts, 

robotic arms, and CNC machines, ensure smooth and reliable operation. The transportation sector benefits 

from electric vehicle (EV) motors, where optimized winding techniques improve energy efficiency and torque output.

HVAC systems rely on well-designed motor windings for fans, compressors, and pumps to maintain energy 

efficiency in heating and cooling applications. Renewable energy solutions, such as wind turbines and 

hydroelectric generators, depend on advanced motor winding designs to maximize power generation 

and durability. Additionally, household appliances, from washing machines to refrigerators, utilize finely

wound motors to deliver consistent performance with minimal energy consumption.

The motor winding is the type of electrical conductor winding that generates a magnetic field to drive the 

motor's rotors.

The design determines torque, electromagnetic force, electrical resistance and the application. The more 

tightly wound the motor, the greater the torque and force produced. Resistance and waste heat will also 

increase at higher speeds. So, the motor windings can be adapted to each application. Electric motors 

from NIDE areperfectly suited to any type of drive in the industry.
