BLDC Motor Winding Machine
Overview
This is a BLDC motor winding machine designed to automate the winding process of brushless DC motors. It uses Aotenjo One and Aotenjo Master to control the motors, providing smooth and precise motion control.
Why Build This?
Gimbal motors are great for robotics projects. They are smooth, precise, and powerful at low speeds.
However, they are expensive and not easy to find. While there are many drone motors available due to the popularity of drones, they are not suitable for robotics projects because they are designed for high RPM and low torque at low speeds.
The key difference lies in the winding configuration and wire diameter. So if we can re-wind drone motors properly, we can convert them into gimbal motors — unlocking new possibilities without the high price tag.
That’s exactly what this machine was built to do: repurpose drone motors into custom gimbal motors and help fill the gap in the robotics market with affordable, high-performance alternatives.
