Thanks, nievesoliver.
Good question.
I’ve asked Juan almost the same, but got big automated answer about how good it is.
He said in it he would help to build it, but not one single question was answered.
Maybe you ask him what’s wrong we’re doing and what has to be changed, corrected, if he won’t show exact diagram his working model (how he can help saying nothing, but common words).

Hello All,

I would like to clear up some stuff once and for all. All the information we need to build the motor has been thoroughly explained by Juan over and over again. I recently posted a PDF file showing all of the essential dimensional relationships that need to be observed when constructing the unit. I have been in communication with Juan for quite some time now; the diagram that I posted was approved directly by him as accurate. Though the magnets I used in the diagram are not the same 20 mm dia x 5mm thick magnets that he used in the video, you can easily scale the model in the drawing to fit those magnet sizes. Here's the basic concepts:

1. The diameter of the ring needs to be the length of 5 magnet diameters. so if you have magnets that are 1 inch in diameter, the ring's inner diameter needs to be 5 inches.

2. He describes the magnets as being like pennies, so that means they should be thin! Not so thin that they break very easily but you can go with a proportional diameter to thickness ration of  4:1 or higher. The magnets I show in the diagram are his recommended magnets to start with to build an easy-to-tune model. His suggested magnet size is 2 inches in diameter and 0.196" (5 mm) thick. This gives a diameter to thickness ration of 10:1. So that will give you an idea of what size magnets to work with.

3. The ring should ideally have 30 magnets in it in accordance with the previously mentioned dimension relationships. If you can't fit 30 magnets in, then your magnets are probably too thick.

4. Each magnet needs to overlap half of the previous magnets face. I recently made a cheap mockup to show this principle using pennies:


Again, this is just to illustrate how the magnets should overlap each other, it's not anatomically correct or anything.

5. The magnets on the rotor arms are the critical part of the motor. They should be the same dimensions as the ring magnets and should have a starting angle of 45 degrees. Juan stated many times that tuning the motor to get it to run involves tweaking the angle of the rotor magnets to find the "cascade of magnetic repulsion" as he terms it.

6. Another important parameter for tuning is distance between the ring magnets and the rotor magnets. Juan suggested a starting distance of about 1.5 cm (for the model I showed in the PDF). But you want a pretty large distance to play with. Design the rotor arms so that you can easily adjust the length as well as the angle. These two parameters will allow you to tune your unit.

7. Starting out, Juan suggests that we make the motors out of Ceramic magnets. As several people mentioned earlier, the magnets in the video were just ordinary ceramic magnets taken from chess pieces. they are 20 mm dia x 5 mm thick. The magnets shown in my PDF should also be ceramic. Neo magnets can also be used later on but the ceramic magnets are easier to work with starting off.

8. There is NO shielding used in the motor in the video. I have discussed this question with Juan several times and he made it clear that the ring and the rotor only have magnets. The mentioning of shielding was just a translation error.

9. The ring used in the video was just a simple cardboard tape roll that was 0.75 inches tall. You don't need any fancy magnetic materials to construct the ring. The same goes for the rotor. Make it out of whatever you want as long as it is not ferromagnetic. We don't want the structural materials to interfere with the magnetic interactions.

Here is a link to the PDF that I attached to a previous post here:

Again, you don't need to use the exact dimensions of the magnets shown but if you follow the above guidelines, that will give you a good starting point to begin building and testing.

If anyone has any questions, just ask and I'll do my best to answer.

Thanks, Jdo.
It means you’re agree that in this  drawing everything’s wrong – it’s not half-face overlap, it’s not 2cm diameter, and it’s not  50 and 5 degrees rule, as well 30 magnets rule (change sizes of magnets, even in 5:1 relation, and everything changes too).
But look at Dan’s setup – it’s exactly what are you writing about - all dimensions are fits.
But it does not work. I have the same setup and it turns only when I’m plying with stator (tilting, wobbling, etc), when it still – no movements; and it can’t be.
And look to Juan writing about shielding material, it’s really hard to make a “wrong translation”.
So still something fishy here, I’ll better wait Juan’s reply to questions and his comments about what’s wrong with Dan’s setup (which’s perfectly fits in your description; it can’t be done better). Thank you.

Hi!

@jdo300
Thank you for the information. But I thought that because the message was in spanish, mr Juan was going to reply himself.

Jesus

He may but generally, he gives me and other people "publications" to post to the forum here, probably because he doesn't speak English and has us translate stuff for him. He does have a registered username though and did post a couple of things back at the beginning of this thread so who knows? But if you want to get in touch with him, the best way is through MSN. He's online just about every day if you want to chat with him directly.

God Bless,

Hey Duane,

That's a good question and one that I have thought about myself a few times. I'll ask Juan about it next time I speak to him and tell everyone what he says.

God Bless,

Hi All

The one good thing that came out of all the debate about the "Shield" mistranslation (sorry all  ) is that it still seems to apply but in a magnetic way from what I'm seeing 

Rather than getting Juan involved in too much translation I was wondering if he would be so kind as to donate his working model for this forum to inspect (non destructively) and pass it on to other (Voted as best to inspect and report back (myself excluded) inspector(s))).

I will gladly donate $100.00 CA towards a working model (as in the video or better) for forum members to inspect and get the ball rolling if Juan agrees and anyone else is interested in this approach.  Better than nothing 

Regards,
Paul

This device spam youtube since its exist, i am pretty sure its a fake. Someone that post this video 100 times per day with 100 differents username is suspect...
