Brushless motors and brushed motors each have unique advantages, but there may also be some common faults.
Advantages of brushless motors:
1. Efficient and energy-saving: Brushless motors use electronic commutation instead of traditional mechanical commutation, making the motor more efficient and consuming less energy. 2. Long lifespan: Due to the simple structure of brushless motors, mechanical wear is reduced, resulting in a longer lifespan. 3. Low noise: The operation noise of brushless motors is relatively small, making the usage environment quieter. 4. Good speed regulation performance: Brushless motors can achieve precise speed regulation through electronic control, suitable for situations that require precise speed control.
Common faults of brushless motors: 1. Controller malfunction: The controller of the brushless motor may have malfunctioned, causing the motor to malfunction. 2. Hall element damage: Hall elements in brushless motors may be damaged due to overload or high temperature, affecting the normal operation of the motor.
Advantages of brushed motors: 1. Simple structure: Brushed motors have a relatively simple structure and lower manufacturing costs. 2. Easy maintenance: Brushed motors are relatively easy to maintain because their mechanical parts are more easily accessible. 3. High starting torque: Brushed motors have a large torque when starting, making them suitable for situations that require a large starting force.
Common faults of brushed motors: 1. Brush wear: The brushes in brushed motors will gradually wear out with use and need to be replaced regularly. 2. Commutator erosion: The commutator in brushed motors may experience erosion, affecting the normal operation of the motor.
