What issues should be communicated with the manufacturer for customizing micro motors?

DC motor manufacturers often receive inquiries from different customers about customized non-standard motor requirements. Due to varying levels of understanding of micro motors and industry products, customers may encounter many problems in communicating with manufacturers. In order to help everyone communicate more efficiently with manufacturers, the following precautions have been summarized:

1. Main specifications and parameters for customized DC motors:

For example, basic information such as motor diameter, length, shaft diameter, voltage, and speed can be directly sent to the manufacturer if there are drawings or parameter tables. Engineers can quickly confirm whether they can proceed with the preliminary evaluation based on these materials.

2. Specific applications of motors:

The information on the products to be used for the motor, the actions to be performed, and the working environment can help engineers search for motor solutions in their technical database, accelerating the progress of technical evaluation.

3. Expected demand for motors:

The confirmation time for motor customization is relatively long (especially for processes that require mold opening), so manufacturers have certain requirements for the quantity of customized projects. If the quantity is small, they will inform customers that customization is not necessary.

4. Complete project schedule:

There are definitely many customized projects for motor factories. Faced with different requirements from different customers, if there is this schedule, engineers can arrange the time points for mold opening, material cycle, first sample time, experimental cycle, customer installation and testing, small batch, trial production and other stages in advance to match the customer's project schedule.

5. Target price:

If there are expected cost requirements and target unit prices, it is best to inform them so that engineers can choose the appropriate plan based on the unit price requirements when evaluating the motor scheme, in order to avoid situations where the motor meets the requirements but the cost is unacceptable.

I hope the above points can provide some help to friends who have customized needs for micro motors, improve communication efficiency, and find suitable manufacturers.
