Electric Motor Model Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-M-11214
The Electric Motor Model by Lab Exports is a highly visual, open-frame educational tool engineered to simplify the teaching of electromagnetism. Constructed with a clear, open layout, the apparatus allows students to inspect every operational component closely, including the armature, permanent field magnets, brushes, and the split-ring commutator. The unit is mounted securely on a heavy-duty, insulated plastic base plate that ensures stability during benchtop demonstrations.
This DC motor demonstration model operates safely on low-voltage direct current (3V to 6V DC), making it exceptionally safe for student-led experiments. Its durable construction features robust copper windings on the rotor, low-friction bearings, and adjustable brass brush contacts. This high-reliability assembly is an essential addition for schools upgrading their inventory of physics lab equipment and practical school education kits.
Key Features
Fully Open Structure: Provides a 360-degree view of all internal components, including the rotor windings, commutator, and brushes.
Safe Low-Voltage Operation: Designed to run on 3V to 6V DC power, eliminating electrical hazards for students.
Dual Magnet Configuration: Features both a permanent magnet set and a removable electromagnet option for advanced lessons.
Adjustable Commutator Brushes: Allows students to experiment with brush tension and positioning to study speed and torque changes.
Heavy-Duty Insulated Base: Sturdy molded non-conductive base plate with non-slip rubber feet ensures stable desktop operation.
Visible Rotation: Features a brightly colored, balanced rotor assembly to make rotational direction and speed clearly visible.

Applications / Uses
Demonstrating the Lorentz force and the left-hand rule for magnetic force vectors.
Visualizing the function of the split-ring commutator in maintaining unidirectional rotation.
Comparing performance differences between permanent magnet DC motors and electromagnet-field motors.
Enhancing STEM projects within technical school curriculum and physics-oriented didactic models.
How to Use the Electric Motor Model
Place the motor model on a flat, stable laboratory workstation.
Insert the permanent magnets into the side brackets on either side of the central armature, ensuring opposite magnetic poles (North and South) face each other.
Connect the 4mm binding terminals to a regulated DC bench power supply using standard banana plug patch cords.
Set the DC power supply to 3.0V and turn on the power switch.
If necessary, give the central rotor a gentle manual nudge to overcome static friction and initiate rotation.
Observe how reversing the polarity of the power supply or swapping the positions of the permanent magnets changes the direction of rotation.
Safety Note: Do not exceed 6V DC input to prevent overheating of the copper coil windings. Keep loose clothing, fingers, and long hair away from the rotating armature.
Care & Maintenance
Keep the copper commutator segments clean and free from carbon buildup by wiping them gently with a dry, lint-free cloth after use.
Periodically check the tension of the brass brushes to ensure they make consistent, gentle contact with the commutator.
Apply a tiny drop of lightweight instrument oil to the rotor bearings at regular intervals to maintain low friction.
Store the model in a dry, dust-free cabinet alongside other high-precision educational laboratory instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Electric Motor Model used for?
It is an educational tool used in physics classes to show how electrical energy from a DC power source interacts with magnetic fields to create mechanical rotation.
Can this motor run on alternating current (AC)?
No, this model is designed strictly for direct current (DC) operation within a safe range of 3V to 6V DC.
What material are the rotor windings made of?
The rotor windings are made of high-conductivity insulated copper wire wound tightly around a soft iron core to maximize magnetic field strength.
Can this model be used to demonstrate a generator?
Yes, by spinning the rotor shaft manually or mechanically and connecting the terminals to a sensitive galvanometer, you can demonstrate electromagnetic induction and generate a small current.
Is this model safe for middle school students?
Yes, because it operates on low-voltage DC power (3V-6V) and contains no hazardous chemicals, it is highly safe for supervised use in middle school science programs.
