In a total of 31
dynamic experiments, the Motorkit explores the assembly and
working of many kinds of Direct Current Motors. Fleming's Left
Hand Rule, which is the fundamental principle of operation of the
motor, is very clearly illustrated in a unique way, and reinforces
the concept in an analytic manner.
Both teacher and
student would be thoroughly motivated by the dynamic rotation of
different kinds of rotors provided.
With numerous ways
of wiring of the stator and rotor circuits to the battery system,
the topic of motors is covered substantially.
To summarize, the
kit includes a machine wound rotor, a wound bipolar rotor and a
simple coil rotor all utilized effectively with the permanent
magnet or wound stators to navigate the different combinations of
circuitry. The experiments range from the Tri-polar motor, the
Bi-polar motor, the Simple coil motor, Shunt and Series motors,
Speed control of different kinds of motors and Exercises on some of
the experiments to stimulate the critical thinking required in the
practical solution of problems in the field of circuits and
motors.
The Motorkit is
accompanied by an exhaustive, illustrated instruction manual to
cover the entire range of 31 experiments.
The kit operates
on 2 size D batteries.
Batteries are not included in the kit.
