0:15-0:17 cool sound)

[@eli55121]

Now it sounds like a true LG😅

[@valentingurlev884]

OMG it sounds very true

[@valentingurlev884]

Bravo. Good job on this clip. 😊🎉

[@valentingurlev884]

Can you make the spin be 1000,1200,1400,1600rpm😊.

[@valentingurlev884]

If you can please make it. 🥺😉👍

[@ignatiousmary8413]

I like the motor sound!!!

[@i_2YK]

nice impressive! ive been wanting for so much to someone to modify this good job my man

[@wishywasher1330]

thank you!

[@omarbagh415]

It needs the true LG shocks sound when spinning That tktktktkt sound

[@wishywasher1330]

I’m not sure I understand

[@MyComputerStudios_]

​@@wishywasher1330he's talking about shock absorbers

[@danandlaundry]

Other machines do it too. My Samsung does it

[@omarbagh415]

@@danandlaundry my samsung does it also but after a final spin( especially if it was unblanced ) But LG shocks sounds like that always

[@danandlaundry]

@@omarbagh415 my Samsung is like it pretty much all the time

[@bartexxy]

the motor looks like from a FFD 🤔 btw spin brake sounds funny, like a true lg

[@valentingurlev884]

Are you make absorbers on washing machine now???????

[@wmchannel3874]

I hardly admire your project with this LG. I’d like to know which motor controller model are you using to power the system. I’m currently working on my project with the Miele W1 and I’m using the classic L298n, but its dangerously overheating when I move the 12v motor that I have connected to it. Before using a less powered motor I would like to know if your controller supports more than 2amp.

[@wishywasher1330]

I’m using a brushless motor which has a rating of 20 rpm/V. It draws around 3A at 36V so I’m using a sensor less brushless motor controller that can handle a maximum of 500W. I used the L298N when I worked with the Bosch and Miele toys and I had to use a small fan to keep the L298N cool. I heard there are better motor controllers for DC out there but a small fan did the job for me

[@wmchannel3874]

⁠Thank you for the response. I finally decided to use the l298n for the pumps and bought the bts7960 driver for the principal motor hoping it will solve the overheating problem. Now i’m dealing with the electric noise that comes from the DC motor, specially when it runs on low speeds. I think I can get rid of it with some capacitors tho. Also I ordered an esp32 because I think the arduino can’t handle a start/stop button in the programming as I want to. I saw in one of your comments that you had a Reddit page for your project. Could you please tell me what your user is so I can access and learn more?

[@omarbagh415]

Cant you do suspension in anyway?? It will be moreee funnnn

[@NicholasLoney-xz1tu]

can you maybe make a video with all of your modifications and use them to make a full cycle

[@Kirill_miha]

where did you find this LG, and can you buy it in Russia?

[@EsmartElectronics]

You can make it spin faster than its rated for. Use field weakening. The motors in the full size LG washers are only rated for like 840 rpm but they use that to make them to faster at the cost of torque. It is a safe way to spin faster than rated rpm

[@wishywasher1330]

It'd be nice to have it spin at around 1200-1400 RPM but if you check out the 1600 RPM spin video I posted, the machine rattles a lot even on an empty drum. I don't really want to risk breaking (more so fracturing/cracking) things since everything inside the machine is hard mounted.

[@valentingurlev884]

Its ok with this spin( 720rpm ) 😊

[@washingandmowing15]

This is wrong, they spin 1400 max in European AND US LG washers.

[@NicholasLoney-xz1tu]

Can I make a suggestion? If you put shocks on it then it won’t be as loud but it requires you to make a boot so the water doesn’t leak

[@wishywasher1330]

If you look at a community post I made in august, you'll see the drum is situated in an outer tub with a sump that resembles a norman window. The gasket (that is actually a hard piece of plastic housing the LEDs and spray fixtures) is welded to the outer tub. This means that half the tub remains intact. Not only would I have to destroy the housing to add suspensions, I would also lose very sturdy housings that support the drum. I'd love to add shocks too but it's simply too big of a risk I'm not willing to take.

[@NicholasLoney-xz1tu]

@@wishywasher1330 that is ok

[@Mr.Beko_WM]

Quick question, when it will be finished what maximum rpm will it have 1400 or 1600rpm?😊

[@wishywasher1330]

720 rpm will be the highest it can go. I’m not able to drive it faster efficiently/safely

[@valentingurlev884]

The clothes can be dry in 720 rpm spin😊❤

[@matejgamingandotherstuff6484]

​@@wishywasher1330 Take a look or two at field weakening, or "just give it a higher frequency without increasing the speed" type of driving some VFDs might use

[@i_2YK]

It would be nice of it had mini heater too that would be the ultimate like to 40-30 degree

[@wishywasher1330]

The door glass fractures at temperatures higher than room temperature. I found out the hard way :(

[@MyComputerStudios_]

Ouch, that motor sounds horrible! So horrible that an actual LG machine is quieter. But at least the drain pump no longer screams

[@wishywasher1330]

You need to calm down with your negativity

[@MyComputerStudios_]

​​@@wishywasher1330PS: If there was a quieter motor available out there... Either way keep going, hoping to see the display functioning soon and being able to select a cycle manually from the machine itself

[@WasherRobloxGuy]

​@@MyComputerStudios_Well that's how motors are made plus some DD's aren't quiet but in the real lg's it's loud

[@zanussi_and_aeg_fan]

​@@wishywasher1330So true, nice work!!!

[@EsmartElectronics]

The older lgs have louder DD motors in them, like the same as this if not even louder

[@prosto_4elovek4]

👍👍

[@matejgamingandotherstuff6484]

Next time go to 2000rpm

[@wishywasher1330]

720 is the highest this motor can go

[@matejgamingandotherstuff6484]

@@wishywasher1330 use 24V, two BTS7960 full bridge driver boards and an L7812 to step the voltage down for the Arduino to 12V.

[@wishywasher1330]

@@matejgamingandotherstuff6484 I’m using a kv20 motor. This means that the RPM the motor spins at is 20 times the voltage applied. Manufacturer recommends a maximum of 36V which is what I’m using hence 720 RPM

[@matejgamingandotherstuff6484]

@@wishywasher1330 Could I help you rewind said motor? I can make it up to 100Kv if you want to

[@wishywasher1330]

I need torque more than I do speed for a washer this size so I won’t be making changes to the motor
