You look at that, and that's your takeaway? Think about complex engineering building on a molecule / nano level and efficiency levels. Everything is about to change in such a fast way.
Was kinda hoping to see more performance specs for the motor, as well as what exactly the AI was optimizing. The high surface area appears to optimize heat dissipation
Heat emitted by a motor is an indicator of inefficient operation. It's energy being wasted as heat instead of mechanical force. If you have to seriously cool a motor, the real problem is that is wasting energy as heat. Gas and diesel engines are great examples. A whole elaborate cooling system is required just to deal with waste heat. The energy spent making that heat is energy not spent doing whatever the engine is supposed to do.

In high tech they already are for a long time (decades), its not issue of engineers imagination or skill its an issue of manufacturing. In aerospace where its profitable to use expensive manufacturing methods you have crazy complicated and state of the art designs. In cheaper industries parts have to be made out of simple blocks that can be mass made with easier and more economical methods ( molding, stamping, etc. ), those impose a lot of limits on shapes and materials.
The AI isn't deciding the best performance design, it's deciding the best structural design for the least amount of material needed to maintain a target strength, but also doesn't really take into account complex factors like temperature differences, wear and tear, material stress fracturing, etc. So no, all this AI designing stuff isn't what people think it is.
3d printing is by far the most expensive manufacturing process on earth and will be for basically decades to come if not forever. Machining is far simpler and quicker for majority of applications and simplicity always wins for cost and speed.
@@dodgygoose3054it is not the future of all manufacturing, only select fields. The tech is so much more complex, expensive and slow compared to conventional machining that it will remain a comparatively small manufacturing method until major breakthroughs are made that can make machines cheaper and faster (I'm talking industrial machines doing SLS metal and PBF polymer) I'd love 3d printing to be the be all end all but realistically it won't.
There was a evolutionary engineering researcher some time ago who used software to "breed" a beam for the International Space Station as a design exercise. This is where the software applies what amounts to genetic breeding of parts to come up with a design that fits the requirements. The beam the computer created looked like a giant leg bone. These generative and evolutionary design methods are going to create some great stuff - that looks really, really weird.
Permanent rare earth magnets are a high cost but Niron (Nitrogen-Iron) permanent magnets could reduce the cost below that of induction motors. These new magnets are stronger, cheaper, and have a higher heat tolerance than Neodymium rare earth magnets while also being environmentally friendly.
This is mostly clickbait. The axial flux motor used by Koenigsegg is based upon a license from a British company that has now been bought by Mercedes. I am converting a 1970 Lotus Europa into an EV using a similar but much smaller axial from motor. The electric motor weighs just 22 lbs and replaces a Renault engine and accessories that weigh 246 lbs! Oh, and it produces around 40% more torque, with maximum torque at just above zero rpm, as well as over 60% higher bhp. It would be easy to install a larger motor, but it's driving through the Renault transmission to keep the suspension the same, and I'm concerned too much torque will snap the input shaft like a carrot. BTW, a popular conventional radial flux motor with similar performance specifications weighs 120lbs! My current (pun intended) calculations indicate the vehicle will weigh no more than it did when it left the factory in Britain.
You are correct about cost/weight equation, the permanent magnet gives you low torque end yet it trades efficiency at high end. The SynRM is a compromise between the two but rare earth metals are still involved. I was trying to lead to 3d flux induction motor without expensive magnets but it's more of a probability of reducing cost, the question is whether it can solve the riddle of low starting torque. I think we should be open to alternative manufacturing techniques which can lead to that.
Awesome project you're working on! I'm currently working on a start-up company that produces conversion-kits to make it easier for people to swap their ICE with an electric motor. Which electric motor did you use for your project?
Amazingly I was only thinking about 3d printed copper coils for motors just last night. However the big problem was how to insulate it. the insulation must be super thin and withstand high temperatures with minimal plasticity (flowing under heat and or pressure). Enamel is the coating of choice but I can see that mixing copper powders and enamel powders would not work as the same layer of a print must contain both and the enamel must be very thin.
True for small motors, but high power motors use large solid hairpins and very few turns so insulation thickness becomes less significant. Also the coils can support themselves so the space between them can be potted with channels for coolant. Would be difficult to 3d print a small FPV motor using this technique though.
@@vitalyl1327 Thats because they are AI. Just a simple type of AI. AI just refers to ANY artificial intelligence, from very simple programs to far more complex models. Generally when people hear "AI" though, they tend to think of either modern cutting edge AI such as Neural Networks, especially LLMs, or other generative AI. Or they hear AI and think of AGI which doesnt even exist yet. But AI has historically been used to refer to basically any program that can make decisions or solve problems. Even really simple stuff. For example, an enemy in a video game that only walks back and forth still has an "AI" controlling it, even if its basically just a single line or two of code controlling it's behavior. So it just depends on what you mean. Calling any computer algorithm AI though is more accurate though with what the term originally meant, and how it was originally used. Its only really in modern times with advancements in AI with stuff like Neural Networks that people's ideas of what constitute an "AI" have really changed.
@@eragon78 ML is not an AI. Never in the AI history "any alhorithm" was branded as AI. Decades ago I worked on the pre-winter AI (expert systems and knowledge bases), and even then the scope of what AI is was very clearly defined.
@@vitalyl1327 This is objectively wrong. AI has been used to refer to simple algorithms for decades. There is a reason in video games for example, you usually call the CPUs "AI", even though theyre often only simple decision trees. AI is just any "artificial" code that makes choices. And the term has been around for decades, long before "modern" AI existed. This isnt new. There are plenty of old sources referring to that kinda stuff as "AI", both in professional and casual context. Also, Machine Learning is more than a simple algorithm. Neural networks arent "an algorithm". I mean technically they are, but so is virtually everything in reality. But the point is there is a pretty big distinction between "just" an algorithm, and machine learning. Machine learning is far more capable than a normal algorithm, because it can be fine tuned for complex to explain tasks. And yes, the standard industry calls Marching Learning "AI". My friend literally works for a company that helps train AI as a software dev, and they call it AI. Her job is literally to review code that various LLMs produce and correct errors to help train them. And I dont even get the objection to calling all this stuff AI anyways. The name is pretty self explanatory. Any "artificial intelligence" classifies. if it has any intelligence whatsoever, which is the ability to make any sort of decisions, even as simple as a decision tree, then its AI. It doesnt have to be self aware or hyper intelligent or anything, it just needs to be capable of making decisions of any kind. Again, my guess is you are likely making the common misconception that AI must refer to AGI, which is an entirely different thing. AGI is far more intelligent than basic AI, and has far stricter criteria, which is also why it doesnt exist yet. But the stuff we have now, is absolutely AI, from simple decision trees and algorithms, to Machine learning. And its been called that for decades, pretty much as soon as computers could do any tasks, people have been calling it AI, even back when they were pretty simple.
@@eragon78 Mind citing a single source corroborating your memory? I was around before the second winter, and I can swear nobody ever called any random algorithm an "AI". Nobody really cares about a weird puny argot of the game developers, they are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. You won't find a paper that'd use such terminology.
I find it funny how people don't understand AI at all and so assign it a godlike status when a simple algorithm would provide far greater and completely controllable results near instantly compared to the AI.
It's pretty clear that even the somewhat limited A.I. that currently exists has the potential of discovering solutions that surpass the "simple" algorithms you describe. The entire lure of A.I. is that it could possibly discover solutions beyond those that even exceptional human intelligence would or could not.
Exciting to watch this technology progress. The ability to systematically integrate elements at the molecular level feels like a game-changer. Eager to see what new ideas this unlocks
I really miss the days when reporting videos for clickbait could see them taken down and having too many videos taken down for clickbait could end your channel.
When comparing two things, one can not be "exponentially" greater than the other. If you don't know what words mean, don't use them. An exponential increase is a accelerating increase of one variable in relation to another one, like a fixed proportional increase in cost each year. It does NOT mean "a lot, lot, lot bigger than".
So yes, nano scale exotic designs will be if not already valid. Especially if they are coalesced or fuse together to be strong, then solid parts. This solves so many robot issues. If we think about it and with AGI already out but not out to the public, we'll then it will be upward at an incredibly fast pace. This is a powerful game changer for upward mobility. Why is all this happening? Thunk about it.
The ability of a motor to be repaired has value. The ability of a motor to be made with less weight and greater efficiency also has value. Which feature has greater value depends on the application.
Yes, but what gets repaired these days anymore. Almost nothing does. It either is within warranty and the buyer gets a new product, or maybe a new part if it is something big like a washing machine. But I have never seen small things like electric toothbrushes get repaired. They get replaced. In such a world, I think the best thing is to produce everything completely recyclable. If this motor actually works (and even works better, otherwise what was the point), it might be well recycable by crushing and grinding it back to dust again. Maybe separate the different metals magnetically or some other way. Nature seldom repairs things. Some creatures grow a new leg, but most die but their offspring live. Trees shed literal tons of leaves and dead branches, but all natural waste is decomposed back to elements or simple molecules which then are absorbed into plants again, which get eaten by deer, which get eaten by wolves, for example. So instead of producing unrecyclable things because they are combinations of plastics, metals and glass glued together like your phone, industry should switch to a production process that is designed to be able to disassemble products back to single materials: plastic, metal and glass separated. And each product has 20% included recycle deposit that you get back when you hand it in, plus a 5% non-refundable surplus that pays for the recycling. So products would cost 25% more, maybe not even that, and it would be something temporary because everyone gets used to it like everyone gets used to inflation. Then it does not matter that much if a motor like this cannot be repaired, because it could be recycled 100% and you get a new one printed for you. So no, you would not be able to repair the motor because it is just a part, but you would be able to repair your washing machine or your car much more easily, because it would have been designed to be easily taken apart for recycling. I think this is the model the whole planet needs to transition to, because we either run out of raw materials, or we run out of livable planet, whichever comes first.

Artificial intelligence is primarily the information that it (AI) was supplied with. Example if the AI indicates in advance who is evil and who is good, then she begins to draw the appropriate picture of her upbringing. As with engineering, it is not enough to provide Artificial Intelligence with formulas. It's important who taught her how to use it.
I'm not an engineer, I watched this because I thought I might learn something. I did, and actually understood the concept of the problems this brings. But also the excitement that can come from this new era of Ai and 3D printing.
Great video man, thanks for updating on the new tech, really appreciate it!!!! ❤. Keep up the great work and keep informing us of the latest tech in 3D printing! ..... One day we civilians will gain access to 3D nano-print full interstellar craft with integrated neural networks in the hull!!! (SRV indicates this is current utilized tech already in possession by US Military contractors - I WANT IT too!) 😊
It was “game over?” Is it game over? Think of the demand for motors in the future and the efficiency required for battery usage. What would you say? Game over?
Somehow this sounds a bit like a pastiche of AI cleaned up narration but the topic is very interesting and leads to more efficiencies. I am amazed; we have a 75 HP DC mortor weighs over 1000 lb. Here he cites 800 HP weighing only 86 lb. Amazing.
I am excited to see the designs of solid coils and possible future liquid coil technologies. We are advancing back into the systems of ancient India and the Vedic technologies.
Very, very impressive. 3D printing has already been quite a quantum leap, and now paired up with AI - it's watch this space. I see a deluge of exciting new developments on their way.
I am just subscribing. In the future try to avoid capitalizing words in your titles - your vids are legit, but many cheesy channels use hyperbolic capitalized words in their titles. This video was very good however! Keep up the good work!
The beauty of 3D printing is that complexity is absolutely free. The AI can and will develop a super motor. The weak point (I think) is how much load can a printed part take?
Oh and since we have a 3D printer (pretty basic one) in our institute this thing is basically working 24/7 because it's that easy to get practical usable parts from it (Adapters, frames, lids, boxes etc.). Recycling and printing stuff on the fly is the future. Its a production on demand to avoid excessive overhead production that gets thrown away in the worst case.
fascinating development.. i got lost right after "open source"... which was about two seconds in.. but, as a new sub, I claim my right to keep grinding! and trying to understand.
It's not here yet, but it's coming. Fast. LLMs change literally everything humans have been doing for a very very long time. The question now is what we can trust. It's exciting. and scary. And fascinating. and potentially devastating. But if we get it right, it's a new Renaissance. And if we get it wrong, we're probably toast. And most people are asking... what's good on Netflix right now? Oh humans. Good video.
I like the inclusion of your image instead of just voice narration. Personally I strongly dislike clickbait phrases like the "game over" currently in the title.
Have a large, 259 kw synchronous motor running at no load and overexcite the fields. This improves the power factor for every device connected to the incoming power transformer. I speak from experience.
This is called generative design and it's actually used _by_ engineers to streamline workflow and create optimized designs based on simulation data. It's not game over, it's just another piece to the game.
2:48 it’s quite interesting with the magnetic fields created; we haven’t explored more than the tip of an icebox yet.. I mean just the water resonance field will make water robots with Ai resonance etc
Today's motor designs already seem pretty efficient. My issue is battery energy density. 1 Gallon of gasoline is about 34.5KW-h of energy storage. A 14 gallon gas tank contains about 483KW-h. And weighs about 100 lbs with tank and pump. And takes less than 5 min to fill. A 120KW-h battery is equivalent to about a 3.5 gallon gas tank. And takes 40 min to get an 80% fill. And weighs about 1,200 lbs. Imho, this is where we really need to concentrate to make EVs truly useful.
really interesting video, intriguing ideas about 3D printing induction coils of odd shapes and dense design. enjoyed your illustrative graphics, nice job.
the past 10 years of electric 'advancement' will be put to shame in 20 years from now. but they had to happen. they are not waste. we are going to start moving faster in research and design than production and that is probably the biggest problem , squaring the two without destroying both.
Fascinating and very informative. My take is that schools of engineering will continue to push the boundaries of what's possible and functional with consideration of cost to produce and mass production. Some applications do not require mass production which allows a more closely managed forging process, however it is very interesting to see new age designs breaking free from traditional induction/magnet core, very impressive technology all in all. Mind-blowing. My question could multi layered 3D printed coils withstand heat and temperature thresholds, didn't notice any mention of heat or temperature just curious to know your thoughts. Great videos. Hard to follow watched it a few times lol

Powdered and formed materials will need to be strengthened (not hardened, as this will create even more fragility) for any of this to work. The particle separation possibilities are potentially lethal in larger models. If a fidget toy still can't be made that doesn't eventually or instantly become compromised, it's impossible to have a heavy use motor that won't either. Even traditionally processed powdered metal components are much less solid than base metal or even cast metal. JMO.
I know that for experimental motors 3D printed parts are great. But when it comes to long-lasting, production grade components, for example in aerospace, standard manufacturing wins the game because it does not suffer from the flaws inherent in 3D-printed materials - even the best printing techniques leave tiny wholes and imperfections in the materials, which break much earlier when exposed to the regular stresses the parts experience compared to their standard manufacturing counterparts.
Maybe the printed coils can be soldered or plated in silver to fill any micro gaps. Lowering the resistance. And having the coils hollow to allow cooling, this could be awesome for performance. Maybe a silver and / or gold plated coil or possibly a alloy of copper and silver to improve tfe conduction, or use the prints to cast the coil in copper. Use something that can handle the heat to keep the coolant passages in the coil open, then uses a mild acid to break it down to clear the passages. Then possibly electroplate in silver ir gold and enamel insulation. Very interesting if nothing else! 🤔✌️
Will that engine just spin meaninglessly on a planet without people? It's great that we have a new engine of the future, it's just a shame that we don't have that future.
Just like any other motor design radial flux is something that will need expansive research to overcome the inherent problems of current designs. With the scarcity of the materials needed for the existing motor designs being limited, there isn't much of a choice except for putting in the time to advance radial flux design for the performance needed. 😊
Would recommend to use internationally known measuring units for videos which go out for everyone. "Pounds" isn't a good unit, considering that imperial measuring system isn't used by most of the world. As for information itself, nice to see new details, new ideas.
One classical design that avoids many modern issues is the slip-ring three-phase motor. The rotor and stator are both wound, and the rotor windings driven through three continuous sliding contacts, so the current is carried without commutation. This offers some of the advantages of the universal motor, which similarly has both rotor and stator windings, namely a higher momentary peak torque relative to its heat-limited power capacity. A permanent magnet motor can never be "turned off". Induction motors don't generally provide usable performance in regenerative braking, only (lossy) electromagnetic braking. A slip-ring motor has full control of the excitation of the magnetic field, so the motor can be allowed to free-spin with extremely low resistance, or loaded to any degree desired similar to an ICE car alternator.
I saw the same thing, unfortunately the geometry is wrong with 12 Neo magnets on the Stator and 24 Neo magnets on the Rotor gives the design a magnetic lock because of the Symmetry, the design needs to be in a state of continuous imbalance requiring an Asymmetric design. ie; 13 Neo magnets on the Stator and 34 Neo magnets on the Rotor etc..., think Golden Ratio or Fibonacci!
what interests me is also how resistent are powder-powder situations to faults (after all, copper dust breaking off the coil could do unfunny shorts, whereas from the body the engine could seize) and how repairable the new wonder-motors will be ... AI-aided processes often produce "awesome but impractical" or "one-off" kind of designs.
I think today's 3D printers are like the old dot matrix printers. They will improve dramatically over the years and then they will be used more widely in manufacturing.
Even though there isn’t much substance here I still very much enjoyed this brief introduction to this. I also found the actual design of the coil and rotors extremely fascinating. The way everything had curved surfaces made it seem more organic to me for some reason. Is this design style arts nouveau. Anything that is in this style always seems psychedelic to me for some reason so maybe it’s more efficient “possibly “ due to its organic fractal design"

Game over for human designs. AI will do it better.

And Gaudi before. There's a good reason why such designs are natural.
Köszönjük!
There was a evolutionary engineering researcher some time ago who used software to "breed" a beam for the International Space Station as a design exercise. This is where the software applies what amounts to genetic breeding of parts to come up with a design that fits the requirements. The beam the computer created looked like a giant leg bone. These generative and evolutionary design methods are going to create some great stuff - that looks really, really weird.
No, just the opposite of wierd.
Permanent rare earth magnets are a high cost but Niron (Nitrogen-Iron) permanent magnets could reduce the cost below that of induction motors. These new magnets are stronger, cheaper, and have a higher heat tolerance than Neodymium rare earth magnets while also being environmentally friendly.
I really hope at least some of these developments really turn out to be game changers.
Maybe we’ll finally get a decent turbo encabulator
My retro encabulator is still doing fine and I don't see a need to upgrade... although the dingle arm is showing some wear.

I think this was clickbait.
Everything with a question mark at the end is just clickbait
This is mostly clickbait. The axial flux motor used by Koenigsegg is based upon a license from a British company that has now been bought by Mercedes.
I am converting a 1970 Lotus Europa into an EV using a similar but much smaller axial from motor. The electric motor weighs just 22 lbs and replaces a Renault engine and accessories that weigh 246 lbs! Oh, and it produces around 40% more torque, with maximum torque at just above zero rpm, as well as over 60% higher bhp. It would be easy to install a larger motor, but it's driving through the Renault transmission to keep the suspension the same, and I'm concerned too much torque will snap the input shaft like a carrot.
BTW, a popular conventional radial flux motor with similar performance specifications weighs 120lbs!
My current (pun intended) calculations indicate the vehicle will weigh no more than it did when it left the factory in Britain.
You are correct about cost/weight equation, the permanent magnet gives you low torque end yet it trades efficiency at high end. The SynRM is a compromise between the two but rare earth metals are still involved. I was trying to lead to 3d flux induction motor without expensive magnets but it's more of a probability of reducing cost, the question is whether it can solve the riddle of low starting torque. I think we should be open to alternative manufacturing techniques which can lead to that.
@@Tech_Planet or in other words "game over" lol.
Cool car and project, mate!
+1 for the pun.
Awesome project you're working on! I'm currently working on a start-up company that produces conversion-kits to make it easier for people to swap their ICE with an electric motor. Which electric motor did you use for your project?
5:30 RIP. Never even been tested. It might as well be another free-energy fantasy.
3D printing different metals in volume is going to be challenging.
AI will figure it out
never be economical at scale.
Given the low concentration of copper in ore being mined today, we're going to be down to copper dust soon enough. :)
Your on the path, keep Building, a Better life
Amazingly I was only thinking about 3d printed copper coils for motors just last night. However the big problem was how to insulate it. the insulation must be super thin and withstand high temperatures with minimal plasticity (flowing under heat and or pressure). Enamel is the coating of choice but I can see that mixing copper powders and enamel powders would not work as the same layer of a print must contain both and the enamel must be very thin.
True for small motors, but high power motors use large solid hairpins and very few turns so insulation thickness becomes less significant.
Also the coils can support themselves so the space between them can be potted with channels for coolant.
Would be difficult to 3d print a small FPV motor using this technique though.
Can't believe I fell for the click-bait.
it is more about 3D printing than a.i.
These days all kinds of optimisation algorithms and even brute force search are called an "AI".
@@vitalyl1327 Thats because they are AI. Just a simple type of AI.
AI just refers to ANY artificial intelligence, from very simple programs to far more complex models. Generally when people hear "AI" though, they tend to think of either modern cutting edge AI such as Neural Networks, especially LLMs, or other generative AI. Or they hear AI and think of AGI which doesnt even exist yet.
But AI has historically been used to refer to basically any program that can make decisions or solve problems. Even really simple stuff. For example, an enemy in a video game that only walks back and forth still has an "AI" controlling it, even if its basically just a single line or two of code controlling it's behavior.
So it just depends on what you mean. Calling any computer algorithm AI though is more accurate though with what the term originally meant, and how it was originally used. Its only really in modern times with advancements in AI with stuff like Neural Networks that people's ideas of what constitute an "AI" have really changed.
@@eragon78 ML is not an AI. Never in the AI history "any alhorithm" was branded as AI. Decades ago I worked on the pre-winter AI (expert systems and knowledge bases), and even then the scope of what AI is was very clearly defined.
@@vitalyl1327 This is objectively wrong. AI has been used to refer to simple algorithms for decades. There is a reason in video games for example, you usually call the CPUs "AI", even though theyre often only simple decision trees.
AI is just any "artificial" code that makes choices. And the term has been around for decades, long before "modern" AI existed. This isnt new. There are plenty of old sources referring to that kinda stuff as "AI", both in professional and casual context.
Also, Machine Learning is more than a simple algorithm. Neural networks arent "an algorithm". I mean technically they are, but so is virtually everything in reality. But the point is there is a pretty big distinction between "just" an algorithm, and machine learning. Machine learning is far more capable than a normal algorithm, because it can be fine tuned for complex to explain tasks.
And yes, the standard industry calls Marching Learning "AI". My friend literally works for a company that helps train AI as a software dev, and they call it AI. Her job is literally to review code that various LLMs produce and correct errors to help train them.
And I dont even get the objection to calling all this stuff AI anyways. The name is pretty self explanatory. Any "artificial intelligence" classifies. if it has any intelligence whatsoever, which is the ability to make any sort of decisions, even as simple as a decision tree, then its AI. It doesnt have to be self aware or hyper intelligent or anything, it just needs to be capable of making decisions of any kind.
Again, my guess is you are likely making the common misconception that AI must refer to AGI, which is an entirely different thing. AGI is far more intelligent than basic AI, and has far stricter criteria, which is also why it doesnt exist yet. But the stuff we have now, is absolutely AI, from simple decision trees and algorithms, to Machine learning. And its been called that for decades, pretty much as soon as computers could do any tasks, people have been calling it AI, even back when they were pretty simple.
@@eragon78 Mind citing a single source corroborating your memory? I was around before the second winter, and I can swear nobody ever called any random algorithm an "AI". Nobody really cares about a weird puny argot of the game developers, they are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. You won't find a paper that'd use such terminology.
3D printing is really turning industry and science on its head, it's amazing to see how far it has come in such a relatively short time.
I find it funny how people don't understand AI at all and so assign it a godlike status when a simple algorithm would provide far greater and completely controllable results near instantly compared to the AI.
AI IS an algorithm, or series of algorithms.
Are the motors we have now been designed by simple algos recently or decades ago.?
As sex sells, AI as “word” also does. Call it AI and feel important or a part of it.
It's pretty clear that even the somewhat limited A.I. that currently exists has the potential of discovering solutions that surpass the "simple" algorithms you describe. The entire lure of A.I. is that it could possibly discover solutions beyond those that even exceptional human intelligence would or could not.
lot of hate in the comments but it's actually pretty informative and not just pure stock footage without saying anything.
It looks so alien.

clickbait earns block.
I really miss the days when reporting videos for clickbait could see them taken down and having too many videos taken down for clickbait could end your channel.
3d models are easy. Show a working prototype(s) and show how they are superior. That ain't so easy.
When comparing two things, one can not be "exponentially" greater than the other. If you don't know what words mean, don't use them. An exponential increase is a accelerating increase of one variable in relation to another one, like a fixed proportional increase in cost each year. It does NOT mean "a lot, lot, lot bigger than".
Have to solve those printed metal “conductivity issues”…
So yes, nano scale exotic designs will be if not already valid. Especially if they are coalesced or fuse together to be strong, then solid parts. This solves so many robot issues. If we think about it and with AGI already out but not out to the public, we'll then it will be upward at an incredibly fast pace. This is a powerful game changer for upward mobility. Why is all this happening? Thunk about it.
I can repair a traditional motor. This shit goes in the bin.
Sad but true.
well, it can be crushed and grinded back to the metal dust it came from, ready to be recreated.
It gets destructively binned and "recycled" just like container software. Virtualized engineering?
The ability of a motor to be repaired has value. The ability of a motor to be made with less weight and greater efficiency also has value.
Which feature has greater value depends on the application.
Yes, but what gets repaired these days anymore. Almost nothing does.
It either is within warranty and the buyer gets a new product, or maybe a new part if it is something big like a washing machine.
But I have never seen small things like electric toothbrushes get repaired. They get replaced.
In such a world, I think the best thing is to produce everything completely recyclable.
If this motor actually works (and even works better, otherwise what was the point), it might be well recycable by crushing and grinding it back to dust again. Maybe separate the different metals magnetically or some other way.
Nature seldom repairs things. Some creatures grow a new leg, but most die but their offspring live. Trees shed literal tons of leaves and dead branches, but all natural waste is decomposed back to elements or simple molecules which then are absorbed into plants again, which get eaten by deer, which get eaten by wolves, for example.
So instead of producing unrecyclable things because they are combinations of plastics, metals and glass glued together like your phone, industry should switch to a production process that is designed to be able to disassemble products back to single materials: plastic, metal and glass separated. And each product has 20% included recycle deposit that you get back when you hand it in, plus a 5% non-refundable surplus that pays for the recycling. So products would cost 25% more, maybe not even that, and it would be something temporary because everyone gets used to it like everyone gets used to inflation.
Then it does not matter that much if a motor like this cannot be repaired, because it could be recycled 100% and you get a new one printed for you. So no, you would not be able to repair the motor because it is just a part, but you would be able to repair your washing machine or your car much more easily, because it would have been designed to be easily taken apart for recycling.
I think this is the model the whole planet needs to transition to, because we either run out of raw materials, or we run out of livable planet, whichever comes first.

what about 3d printing the part, and then using a thin concrete layer to allow it to be melted? Maybe a carbon reinforced concrete.
Might as well just 3D print the mold then cast metal into it.
@@bpj1805 Then you would need a material that could stand the heat of melting, and be removeable. Shit concrete wouldn't work. High temps ruin it.
What if you heated up the copper right to the edge of melting and hit it with sonics? Is there a sweet spot that would result in crystallization without deformity?
@@grndzro777 3D printable ceramics that can handle copper's melting point are a dime a dozen. it doesn't have to be Portland cement (a particularly bad choice for commercial manufacturing, for multiple reasons).

all i learned is:
Artificial intelligence is primarily the information that it (AI) was supplied with. Example if the AI indicates in advance who is evil and who is good, then she begins to draw the appropriate picture of her upbringing. As with engineering, it is not enough to provide Artificial Intelligence with formulas. It's important who taught her how to use it.
Awesome update. Interesting the direction AI and 3d printing have taken us.
Was working on multi metal PBF about a decade ago. Good to see it's finally starting to gain some traction.
Amazing presentation! This was fun to watch and well put together.
Wir sind ganz am Anfang der Entwicklung. Wir können noch kein perfektes Ergebnis erwarten. Also *_WEITERMACHEN!_*
I'm not an engineer, I watched this because I thought I might learn something. I did, and actually understood the concept of the problems this brings. But also the excitement that can come from this new era of Ai and 3D printing.
Great video man, thanks for updating on the new tech, really appreciate it!!!! ❤. Keep up the great work and keep informing us of the latest tech in 3D printing! ..... One day we civilians will gain access to 3D nano-print full interstellar craft with integrated neural networks in the hull!!! (SRV indicates this is current utilized tech already in possession by US Military contractors - I WANT IT too!) 😊
This is simply fantastic. It’s interesting to combine such an engine with Searle’s idea.
It was “game over?”
Is it game over? Think of the demand for motors in the future and the efficiency required for battery usage. What would you say? Game over?
Somehow this sounds a bit like a pastiche of AI cleaned up narration but the topic is very interesting and leads to more efficiencies.
I am amazed; we have a 75 HP DC mortor weighs over 1000 lb. Here he cites 800 HP weighing only 86 lb. Amazing.
Where can we download the model? 😏
I am excited to see the designs of solid coils and possible future liquid coil technologies. We are advancing back into the systems of ancient India and the Vedic technologies.
Very, very impressive. 3D printing has already been quite a quantum leap, and now paired up with AI - it's watch this space. I see a deluge of exciting new developments on their way.
I am just subscribing. In the future try to avoid capitalizing words in your titles - your vids are legit, but many cheesy channels use hyperbolic capitalized words in their titles. This video was very good however! Keep up the good work!
The beauty of 3D printing is that complexity is absolutely free. The AI can and will develop a super motor. The weak point (I think) is how much load can a printed part take?
Definitly interesting. Even if it is only feasible for prototyping, this prototypes can give practical data to further analysis and optimizations.
Oh and since we have a 3D printer (pretty basic one) in our institute this thing is basically working 24/7 because it's that easy to get practical usable parts from it (Adapters, frames, lids, boxes etc.). Recycling and printing stuff on the fly is the future. Its a production on demand to avoid excessive overhead production that gets thrown away in the worst case.
fascinating development.. i got lost right after "open source"... which was about two seconds in.. but, as a new sub, I claim my right to keep grinding! and trying to understand.
It's not here yet, but it's coming. Fast.
LLMs change literally everything humans have been doing for a very very long time. The question now is what we can trust.
It's exciting. and scary. And fascinating. and potentially devastating.
But if we get it right, it's a new Renaissance.
And if we get it wrong, we're probably toast.
And most people are asking... what's good on Netflix right now?
Oh humans.
Good video.
I like the inclusion of your image instead of just voice narration. Personally I strongly dislike clickbait phrases like the "game over" currently in the title.
Have a large, 259 kw synchronous motor running at no load and overexcite the fields. This improves the power factor for every device connected to the incoming power transformer. I speak from experience.
This is called generative design and it's actually used _by_ engineers to streamline workflow and create optimized designs based on simulation data. It's not game over, it's just another piece to the game.
good one - lots of change in this area so keep posting
2:48 it’s quite interesting with the magnetic fields created; we haven’t explored more than the tip of an icebox yet.. I mean just the water resonance field will make water robots with Ai resonance etc
Today's motor designs already seem pretty efficient. My issue is battery energy density. 1 Gallon of gasoline is about 34.5KW-h of energy storage. A 14 gallon gas tank contains about 483KW-h. And weighs about 100 lbs with tank and pump. And takes less than 5 min to fill. A 120KW-h battery is equivalent to about a 3.5 gallon gas tank. And takes 40 min to get an 80% fill. And weighs about 1,200 lbs. Imho, this is where we really need to concentrate to make EVs truly useful.
Remember, AI also draws 3 legged people with 7 fingers on one hand.
Excited to see the output of this new design!
really interesting video, intriguing ideas about 3D printing induction coils of odd shapes and dense design. enjoyed your illustrative graphics, nice job.
the past 10 years of electric 'advancement' will be put to shame in 20 years from now. but they had to happen. they are not waste. we are going to start moving faster in research and design than production and that is probably the biggest problem , squaring the two without destroying both.
Fascinating and very informative. My take is that schools of engineering will continue to push the boundaries of what's possible and functional with consideration of cost to produce and mass production. Some applications do not require mass production which allows a more closely managed forging process, however it is very interesting to see new age designs breaking free from traditional induction/magnet core, very impressive technology all in all. Mind-blowing.
My question could multi layered 3D printed coils withstand heat and temperature thresholds, didn't notice any mention of heat or temperature just curious to know your thoughts.
Great videos. Hard to follow watched it a few times lol
GAME OVER: THE FUTURE IS RADIO FREQUENCY BY MAXWELL CHIKUMBUTSO. REAL GAME CHANGER! THE FUTURE OF MAKING ELECTRIC WITH HIS INVENTION. A DEVICE THE ABSORB ELECTRIC FROM SPACE. WOW, THAT A GAME CHANGER!
Quite impressive for sure, the new design will definitely improve efficiency.
What were the dimensions other 86 lbs? How long, wide, tall can it be made?
Powdered and formed materials will need to be strengthened (not hardened, as this will create even more fragility) for any of this to work. The particle separation possibilities are potentially lethal in larger models. If a fidget toy still can't be made that doesn't eventually or instantly become compromised, it's impossible to have a heavy use motor that won't either. Even traditionally processed powdered metal components are much less solid than base metal or even cast metal. JMO.
crafting tables are now real
I know that for experimental motors 3D printed parts are great. But when it comes to long-lasting, production grade components, for example in aerospace, standard manufacturing wins the game because it does not suffer from the flaws inherent in 3D-printed materials - even the best printing techniques leave tiny wholes and imperfections in the materials, which break much earlier when exposed to the regular stresses the parts experience compared to their standard manufacturing counterparts.
Maybe the printed coils can be soldered or plated in silver to fill any micro gaps. Lowering the resistance. And having the coils hollow to allow cooling, this could be awesome for performance. Maybe a silver and / or gold plated coil or possibly a alloy of copper and silver to improve tfe conduction, or use the prints to cast the coil in copper. Use something that can handle the heat to keep the coolant passages in the coil open, then uses a mild acid to break it down to clear the passages. Then possibly electroplate in silver ir gold and enamel insulation. Very interesting if nothing else! 🤔✌️
Will that engine just spin meaninglessly on a planet without people? It's great that we have a new engine of the future, it's just a shame that we don't have that future.
Just like any other motor design radial flux is something that will need expansive research to overcome the inherent problems of current designs. With the scarcity of the materials needed for the existing motor designs being limited, there isn't much of a choice except for putting in the time to advance radial flux design for the performance needed. 😊
Would recommend to use internationally known measuring units for videos which go out for everyone. "Pounds" isn't a good unit, considering that imperial measuring system isn't used by most of the world. As for information itself, nice to see new details, new ideas.
One classical design that avoids many modern issues is the slip-ring three-phase motor. The rotor and stator are both wound, and the rotor windings driven through three continuous sliding contacts, so the current is carried without commutation. This offers some of the advantages of the universal motor, which similarly has both rotor and stator windings, namely a higher momentary peak torque relative to its heat-limited power capacity.
A permanent magnet motor can never be "turned off". Induction motors don't generally provide usable performance in regenerative braking, only (lossy) electromagnetic braking. A slip-ring motor has full control of the excitation of the magnetic field, so the motor can be allowed to free-spin with extremely low resistance, or loaded to any degree desired similar to an ICE car alternator.
Have you gotten the Perendev magnet motor in the back to work or a video on that?
I saw the same thing, unfortunately the geometry is wrong with 12 Neo magnets on the Stator and 24 Neo magnets on the Rotor gives the design a magnetic lock because of the Symmetry, the design needs to be in a state of continuous imbalance requiring an Asymmetric design. ie; 13 Neo magnets on the Stator and 34 Neo magnets on the Rotor etc..., think Golden Ratio or Fibonacci!
what interests me is also how resistent are powder-powder situations to faults (after all, copper dust breaking off the coil could do unfunny shorts, whereas from the body the engine could seize) and how repairable the new wonder-motors will be ... AI-aided processes often produce "awesome but impractical" or "one-off" kind of designs.
I think today's 3D printers are like the old dot matrix printers. They will improve dramatically over the years and then they will be used more widely in manufacturing.
Even though there isn’t much substance here I still very much enjoyed this brief introduction to this. I also found the actual design of the coil and rotors extremely fascinating. The way everything had curved surfaces made it seem more organic to me for some reason. Is this design style arts nouveau. Anything that is in this style always seems psychedelic to me for some reason so maybe it’s more efficient “possibly “ due to its organic fractal design"
You could easily build liquid cooling channels into a 3D printed motor. Interesting for electric vehicles that need a really high power density.
