Motor
  • Powers the gear train
Electrical failures: Motor may overheat and fail Product will not mix the ice cream, and the product may not have good consistency. 8 Motor may overheat when the ice cream starts solidifying. The increased viscosity of the ice cream may add too much torque on the motor. 6 Testing with different types of ice cream and find the point when the load applied is too high 3 124 Find a controller that will turn off the motor once the torque applied to the motor gets too high Motor Manufacturer Integrate a current sensor into the design 8 1 3 24
Mechanical Failure: Gear train may strip The rotation of the motor will not be transferred to the product 8 The increased friction in between the separate gears can cause the gears to strip 2 Testing the durability of the gears 3 48
