Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a brushless DC electric motor, such as for an actuator unit of an implant, as for a cardiac assist system, with a stator with a hollow-cylindrical iron-free winding and a rotor which can rotate relative to the stator. A shaft has a number p of pairs of permanent-magnetic poles, and the winding has a number n of three-phase systems separate from one another. The number of n three-phase systems separate from one another, is varied based on a number p of pairs of permanent-magnetic poles, and the systems are arranged in a manner spatially offset from one another by an angle of 360°/n.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method, a device, and a computer program for measuring deflections at the stator end winding of an electric machine. Disclosed is a measurement method, a device, and a computer program for measuring vibrations at the stator end winding of an electric machine, with the steps of arranging sensors at the stator end winding at different positions, measuring the vibrations with the sensors, measuring the amplitudes and phases of the radial and tangential vibrations with the sensors, deriving displacements of the stator end winding due to vibrations by means of the measured amplitudes and/or phases of the radial and tangential vibrations.
