All Permanent Magnet Motor

[Airstriker]

First off I just want to say thank you so much to magnetman12003 for sharing this wonderful design! I thought I would have a go at this with what I already had available and so I have not used the magnet sizes that you have used.

So far I have not achieved any continuous rotation so perhaps the sizing is very important to your design but there also seems to be a sticky point to my build which possibly might mean weak or uneven magnet rings?
All pieces printed for the magnet holders were at 45 degrees.

I have a lot of time on my hands atm so will continue to experiment with the available magnets I already have.

Your upper ring magnet is stationary - it should not be.

Try placing the rod magnets inside the tubes.  The ends of the rod magnets should face the same polarity as the block magnets. To be certain the rod magnets are close to the block magnets a weight on the opposite end of the rod magnet should be added.  The rod magnets and weight themself's should float free and not be fixed in any way to the supporting tubes!!!

Here is a video of the motor turning folks.
Shown a little out of focus to hide important parts.
More to come later on  in focus.

In that few seconds movie, I can clearly see that the rotor is slowing down.
I can also tell you that  skewed magnets on a plate cannot direct force upon a stationary flat magnet to make rotary motion.


So my 5 cents on this one - FAKE.


Sorry.

Please.

Yes i see it too. I don't think it showed continuous rotation, and it could have been given initial speed. All i think it shows is what he considers that he got a gain of energy, not necessarily greater than friction. He never claimed anything more either. And i assume that's true, i know him and know that he is a honest researcher.

Who replicates, btw, this thing looks like delicate. The strength and the weight of the rod magnets, etc, may all matter in minor detail. So no wonder when you cannot replicate. This is the problem of wanting to get all that at once. Why don't you replicate my experiment, much simpler, where you did succeed for certain. But yes, it's already replicated.

Hello,new setup. Not spinning. Even with two ring magnets.
