Andy Gravity-Magnet Motor

[handysg]

Hi All,

New here, been reading about it. I think it will work but it has to be huge or the torque would probably be insufficient to produce any usuable energy. If too small, the friction as mentioned will render it as for display only. Can see but cannot use.

What about this Andy_Motor animation by Eric Vogels: http://fdp.nu/AndyMotor/default.asp


I don't see why this arrangement of magnets should move perpetually.
Did you see the advertising banner on the bottom of the page ?

For Shenzhen Shan magnetism industry this concept may have some output...

I'm sorry to say that the small amount of torque that can be had with the off center magnets will not be enough to overcome the rolling resistance of the mechanism. But stuff like this is fun to build anyway.

Have a read of this before you build it, it could save you time and money.
