This paper deals with a copper die casting induction motor which has several advantages of motor performance. The developed motor is used as spindle motor in machining center. The dynamic characteristic analysis of rotor is dealt with for precision machining. The critical speed of rotor considering rotation and gyroscopic effect should be above operating speed, 18,000 rpm, and have a 201 % sufficient separation margin. Also, the 3-D unbalance vibration response analysis is performed and enabled the prediction of the expected vibration amplitude by unbalance in high speed. The unbalance vibration responses of each position on the rotor are satisfied with allowable vibration displacement of API 611 standard according to balancing G grade(G 0.4, G 2.5, G 6.3). Copper die casting high speed induction motor is successfully developed and verified by experiment.

This paper introduces the development process and investigation of a 60kW induction motor for electric vehicles. We present performance improvement in the induction motor of electric vehicle using copper die-casting based on a multi-gate process. Copper die-casting motors can reduce the size of the motor, the loss of the rotor, and material costs. We also introduce electromagnetic, thermal, mechanical design and analysis results that satisfy the design and the performance requirements. In order to analyze losses accurately of induction motor, commercial finite element analysis is done considering PWM voltage and thermal characteristics by using lumped-circuit parameters. Experimental tests are also carried out to validate the traction motor design.

일반적으로 사용하고 있는 유도전동기의 로터는 알루미늄 다이캐스팅 기술을 적용하는 것이 보통이다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 알루미늄에 비해 융점이 높은 동 다이캐스팅 기술을 적용하여 고속 고효율의 공작기계용으로 개발하였다. 30kW급 이상의 전기자동차용과는 달리 공작기계용은 3kW급과 10kW급으로 개발하였으며 슈퍼프리미엄급에 해당되는 성능과 30,000rpm에서 그 성능을 확인하였다.
