Ummm...what happened to the rotating iron middle section from the initial design?

Hi Ketone,

The rotor is a magnet, not iron, according to Syair's diagram. That would either have to be two diametric magnets or shaped square magnets.

Hi All,

I made a quick FreeCad model of the stator. It's pretty basic but would need to be scaled for whatever the rotor size is. The model is parametric so anything can be changed on it.

FreeCad is here:

Might be a possibility of 3D printing this with:

Hi DreamThinkBuild,

thanks for sharing your great ideas. I would guess this Iron polymer would be non conductive?
Do you have a 3D printer and are you going to be printing a stator for yourself?

Hi Luc,

I don't have any of the material to print yet(ordered), so not sure on how its properties are.

I have a 3D printer and I was actually looking into the material to print a flux switching alternator, which is a fairly simple design.

Syair's design looks interesting but don't want to do a full build until the material can be tested further.

Thanks for the reply DreamThinkBuild

Please let me know how it turns out. It would be very interesting if we could 3D print cores. That could be enough to get me to buy a 3D printer
