hello guys
i'm trying to figure out this motor before applying any voltage .
It's an NSK industrial motor , used to drive precision industrial robot .
it has 2 windings , one on each side , and a huge bearing in the middle .
It seems that the larger windings are the usual 3 phase , all 6 wires are available at the connector .
the smaller winding have 4 wires available ,per my resistance measurements it looks like they are connected in Y config (thus 4 wires...) total of 11 wires available (extra wire for case ground)
the motor is an outrunner .
The main issue for me is i don't see any magnets or field coils . Also the teeth on stator and rotor make it look like a stepper motor .
i removed the metal laminates on the smaller coil (see pics) and its just... well ... metal .
anybody have any idea how does it operates without magnets (maybe they are inside somewhere) and what is the purpose of the second coil ?
thanks
