Working Magnetic Motor on you tube??

Think I might of got my first latch while playing around with those small 6mm

I joined them together with a bit of tape and stuck them on the Stator bearings:


Heres a short movie showing you what I mean.

Nice work

I managed to get AGW lock but I had to keep the rotor spinning manually at a near constant speed, if you can find the speed of the rotor while the stator was AGW you might have something to work with.

Wow, that look like it.

Something you can also try is to spin the rotor with your hand and spin the little one with your air machine, maybe the little one need to spin really fast to start turning on his own

Hi Sean,

I noticed that the two stator magnets that spin with the rotor have a tendency to put serious drag on the rotor.  You might want to try the experiment without them and see if you can get in sync easier doing your reverse spin.  Or try doing the reverse spin on multiple stator magnets.

Just trying to help,

Keep up the great work

Hi Sean,
Looking good so far...
I did some tests last night and found that if I move the stator magnet to just above the rotor magnets(held by hand) I could get it to turn AGW quite easily.
With the rotor in the correct place it is very difficult. Still waiting for correct magnets too.
I think the stators need a lot more mass to allow it to even out its rotation at the slower speeds.
The stator has nearly no inertia because of its small diameter, which means the slowest the rotor/stator may sync is quite a high speed.
Its interesting that you got a better run time running the device on the vertical, must be something to do with the number of contact surfaces that the balls in the bearings are in contact with.
I see you ordered the HDPE, so you need to re-order the Acetal (Delrin) instead, its not wasted as you can try both now.
I suppose when the design is more proven you could go for a top plate, bottom plate to hold bearing for rotor and stators, just like in a watch/clock.

ummmm interesting that if I jam one Stator magnet back so it cannot rotate I can get the Latch very easly.

I am not taking this too seriously till I get the correct Stator magnets, but thx for all the tips and input guys.

Another video too show what I mean
