Motor Armatures

An armature is the power-producing component of an electric machine and can be on either the rotor (rotating part) or the stator (stationary part) of the machine. The armature carries the current, so it is always a conductor or a conductive coil, oriented normal to both the field and to the direction of motion, torque (rotating machine), or force (linear machine).

Armature wiring is made from copper or aluminum. Because of its higher electrical conductivity, copper wiring enhances electrical efficiencies; aluminum wiring, however, is lighter and less expensive.
