Re: [TCML] How To Turn A Vacuum Cleaner Motor Into A Synchronous Motor



Hi deano,

the sound didn't change very much of course it now sounds like 3000 1/min instead of 11500 1/min and there is the typical sound like a modified asynch motor with flats on its armature when locking in sync.

Well, judging by the sound of it, that is one unhappy motor.
Did the motor make any such noise before the modification?

Hello,

today I modified a 400W universal motor from a washing machine. I used 2
diodes each 1kV/6A. I did a scope test which shows that the motor runs
perfectly sync:

But there are 2 problems: The motor is not self-starting AND the motor
sometimes runs in "crazy mode", as I call this strange behaviour.
"normal-mode" and "crazy-mode" - both can be seen in the video.

Best Regards
Stefan
