Job description

Precision Assembler - Electric Motor Wiring - Motor Development Technician

PMW Dynamics designs and manufactures servo motors in many different configurations. Our designs vary from pancake, printed armature, axial flux brushed motors to advanced, bespoke, brushless motor solutions. All motor designs are originated on-site by our expert motor development specialists.

We now seek to expand our production team with a new role responsible for the manufacture of prototype and low batch quantity production brushless motors.

The role will involve all aspects of motor assembly including bonding high power, rare-earth magnets to rotor assemblies, insulation and hand/machine winding and lacing stator assemblies, and post-assembly potting and/or impregnation.

Winding a motor stator involves winding copper wire around motor “teeth” in a precise pattern, paying particular attention to the number of turns per tooth and the layering of the turns to achieve maximum fill. Once wound and terminated, the coils are secured in place with manual lacing.

Ideally, you will have experience in motor hand winding, but if not, you are likely to come from a wiring loom manufacturing or chassis prototype wiring background, which provides highly transferable skills to undertake motor winding.

Key requirements include:

• Motor Winding or Manual Wiring Experience
• Advanced Manual Soldering, Wire Termination, and Crimping Skills
• Keen Eye-Sight and High Manual Dexterity
• Highly Logical & Methodical Work Patterns
• Keen Attention to Detail
• Ability to Understand and Follow Detailed Wiring Diagrams

Stator winding can vary from a few hours to many days depending upon the size and complexity of the motor, meaning that careful and accurate recording of the winding progress, especially when spread over multiple days, is essential.

PMW offers full on-the-job training to support skills development.
