Looking for motor testing houses
Hello all. I'm looking to find companies in the United States that
perform testing and evaluation on small brush-less DC motors. I'm talking about generating torque/speed curve profiles, dynamometer testing, winding resistance and inductance measurement, etc., not just "yeah Wally, it spins real purdy!" kind of testing. The motors I'm interested in testing are ~1/4HP or ~200 Watts and max unloaded RPM of ~10,000. So far searching on Google has only lead to a single reputable lead... I'd like to avoid having to get all the equipment myself since this is a one or two time testing and the equipment is too pricey to justify it. Thanks in advance! -Will |

Sounds like a real specialty shop. Is this for some sort of QA function? Or are you trying to find the motor parameters as the basis for some design/analysis work? If its the latter, can you get the data from the manufacturer? If not, your best bet might be to look for a cal-cert lab that deals with electromechanical transducers. -- Paul Hovnanian * * ------------------------------------------------------------------ Time is the best teacher; Unfortunately it kills all its students. It is for QA. Essentially we have an old motor vendor we're not too thrilled with and a new motor vendor we're feeling out. We want to take samples of each and compare/contrast them, but also check the real world numbers objectively. We know what the numbers *should* be, but we'd like to verify that's what the numbers actually *are*. -Will |
