Outer Slot Catalog
The Outer Slot Catalog is used for creating slot parts for machines with outer
stators or inner rotors.
- Templates follow naming conventions specific to outer slots.
- The number of slots is referred to as SN (Slot Number).
Regardless of the part type, users should follow these general steps when creating parts in FluxMotor:
Template Selection
From the Part Catalog dialog box, select a template:
- OS_Template: Provides a blank sector (a slice of an
annular ring) for users to add their CAD model or create a custom sketch. It
includes mandatory parameters:
- OD (Outer Diameter)
- ID (Inner Diameter)
- SN (Number of Slots)
-
Other Templates: Correspond to standard designs, named according to FluxMotor conventions.
- Click OS_Template button to open the Part Catalog panel.
- Right-click the desired template and choose Import.
Adjust Structural Parameters
Modify the key design parameters:
- Outer Diameter (OD): Sets the outer diameter of the stator or slot part.
- Inner Diameter (ID): Sets the inner diameter of the stator or slot part.
- Number of Slots (SN): Defines the number of stator slots or part repetitions to construct the stator.
Apply Changes
- The system generates sketches and bodies.
- In the Assembly Browser, an editable sketch appears in the Sketch environment.
- In the Solution Browser, all new bodies are automatically assigned to the FluxMotor solution.
Note: Users may bypass template selection by directly creating
a basic sector in the Sketch environment using the
required parameters (OD, ID,
SN). In this case, manual assignment of all bodies to
the FluxMotor solution is required. To edit or enhance a generated
sketch, simply modify it within the Sketch
environment.
