Compared with the traditional motor casing, the aluminum die-casting casing motor has certain advantages. However, not all motors use aluminum casings. The material of the casing depends on the way the motor is used. For example, large motors generally use cast iron materials.
Small motors such as our YE series three-phase asynchronous motors use aluminum die-casting casings, and some use cast iron casings.

Aluminum die-casting casing motors VS traditional iron casing motors

  1. One uses die-casting aluminum, and the other is die-cast iron;
  2. The noise generated by the aluminum die-casting motor is significantly smaller than that of the iron die-casting motor;
  3. In terms of heat dissipation, the heat dissipation of aluminum motors is relatively good, and the adaptable temperature range is higher;
  4. For the three-phase asynchronous motor with an aluminum die-casting shell, the hardness is not suitable for use in places where the output is large. The electric motor with the iron die-casting shell is suitable for all places, so the hardness is much worse than that of the iron shell;
  5. However, the weight of the aluminum die-casting motor is lighter than that of the iron die-casting motor (compared with the power), and the thermal conductivity is higher than that of the iron die-casting motor.
  6. There is basically no difference in performance between the two three-phase asynchronous motors. In terms of price, because the smelting cost of aluminum is higher than that of iron, the three-phase asynchronous motor of an aluminum shell is slightly higher than that of an iron shell motor (compared with the same power).

Advantages of three-phase induction motors with aluminum die-casting shell

lightweight, good thermal conductivity, good plasticity, high elongation, low noise, good heat dissipation, and good running stability.
