Hi,
thanks all for the tips.
Maybe I should just sketch a little bit what I am trying to do. I am not looking for a big mill. I want to start with a smaller type, just enough to load 12 V batteries for use in my remote shed. Radio etc.. perhaps a lamp or so...
On the other while gathering all the info and material I might as well have a look to build a bigger one...
The motor is not thàt small. About 25cm (10 inches) in diameter. But it is rather flat, around 10 cm (4 inches)
Maybe I should give following washing machine motor a try? The motor is missing the label, so I have to find out everything about it by looking at it... If anybody can be of any assistant it would be highly appreciated.
What I do know about it is:
- that it is coming from an EUDORA or EUMENIA Babynova washing machine (EU-350 01).
- I SUSPECT this is a 3 phase motor ?
- It has 36 stator slots, STRANGELY there are 2 slots empty. Somebody any clue why?
- There are two capacitors connected. are they start capacitors?
- it looks like this: (the first picture is from an ebay shop. If only I could read the yellow label on it...)
Any suggestions how to identify this motor? Would it make a better generator for my purpose?
Thanks!
