1.1 Quantitative selection criteria (supplementary requirements specific to micro devices)

  • Accuracy and power matching:

  • Selection for wearable devices and medical micro - instrumentsUltra - precision grade(Speed stability accuracy≤0.05%), such as medical stepper motors with a diameter of 6mm The accuracy of the step angle≥0.72 degrees;

  • Suitable for consumer electronics (such as headphone motors)Precision grade(0.1% - 1%), The power density needs to be≥3W/cm³, meeting the lightweight requirements.

  • Enhanced environmental adaptation:

  • Implantable medical motors need to pass the ISO 10993 biocompatibility certification and be resistant to body fluid corrosion;

  • Micro motors for drones need to meet the IP67 protection level, with no rust after a 48 - hour salt spray test, and vibration tolerance≥200m/s²(higher than ordinary industrial motors).

  • Energy efficiency and lifespan requirements:

The efficiency of micro - brushless motors needs to be≥88%, and the lifespan of brushed micro - motors is≥3000hours (for toys)/≥5000 hours (for consumer electronics).

1.2 Special specifications for installation and construction

  • Control of mechanical installation accuracy:

  • Select the tolerance of shaft fit as H7/g6 , and the coaxiality deviation of installation≤0.02mm , to avoid vibration caused by eccentricity;

  • Fixing method: For motors with a diameter≤10mm , use double fixation of bonding + clamping. The adhesive should be of a low - volatility and high - temperature - resistant (≥100℃) type; For motors with a diameter of 10 - 30mm , use M1 - M3 micro bolts for fixation, and the tightening torque≤0.5N・m, to prevent thread slippage.

  • Details of electrical connection:

  • Use AWG30 - AWG36 ultra - fine wires for leads. The soldering temperature≤350℃, and the soldering time≤3 seconds, to avoid damage to the windings due to high temperature;

  • The controller of micro - brushless motors needs to support low - current driving (minimum continuous current≥10mA), and reserve a differential signal interface for Hall sensors.

  • Heat dissipation adaptation:

  • In enclosed spaces (such as headphones and watches), use thermal conductive adhesive tapes to fit the housing for heat dissipation, with a thermal conductivity≥1.5W/m・K;

  • High - power micro - motors (50 - 100W) are integrated with micro - heat sinks, and the heat dissipation area needs to be more than 3 times larger than the surface area of the motor.
