b. Strong durability: AC motors have a simple structure, long life and easy maintenance.

c. Affordable price: Compared with DC motors, AC motors have a lower cost.

d. Stable power: Stable performance during long-term operation.

Gear motor (gearbox motor)

Gear motor increases torque by reducing speed, and grinds finer

a. Low noise: Gear motor has low speed and low noise, suitable for offices, conference places and other environments that require low decibel sound

b. Fine grinding:

2. How to choose a suitable motor

Choose according to needs

Home use: It is recommended to choose a DC motor, which has low noise and flexible operation.

Commercial use: It is recommended to choose an AC motor, which is durable and economical.

Consider the power size

Small grinder: Suitable for home or personal use, the motor power is between 100-200W.

Large grinder: Suitable for coffee shops or commercial places, the motor power should be above 300W to ensure efficient operation.

Check the manufacturer's brand and reputation

Choosing a motor from a well-known brand can ensure quality and after-sales service. At the same time, referring to user reviews is also an important basis for decision-making.

Motor maintenance tips

Regular cleaning

Coffee powder easily accumulates around the motor, and long-term cleaning may cause the motor to overheat or damage. It is recommended to perform a comprehensive cleaning once a month, wipe the outside of the motor with a dry cloth, and use a small brush to clean the internal dust if necessary.

Prevent overload

The grinder should avoid long-term continuous operation during use to prevent the motor from overheating. It is recommended to use it for no more than 30 minutes each time, and give the motor a proper rest time after continuous work.

Check the wires and plugs

Check the wires and plugs regularly for wear or looseness to ensure electrical safety. If problems are found, they should be replaced or repaired in time.

Regular lubrication

Some high-end grinder motors need to add lubricating oil regularly to ensure smooth operation of the motor. Please refer to the product manual for specific lubrication cycles and methods.
