What is the function of the electric rotisserie motor?
The electric motor in a rotisserie plays a vital role in ensuring even cooking of food. This component is responsible for the constant and controlled rotation of the spit on which foods, such as chicken, roasts, or other types of meat, are skewered.
Rotation allows heat to reach all surfaces of the food evenly, preventing some parts from overcooking while others remain raw. This ensures even cooking and optimal browning. The electric motor is designed to operate at a constant speed, which is crucial for maintaining a stable rotation rhythm that ensures uniform heat distribution. Furthermore, the quiet and efficient operation of the motor contributes to a pleasant and uninterrupted cooking experience.
In short, the electric motor is the heart of the rotisserie, determining the final quality of the dishes prepared and ensuring that every meal is cooked to perfection.
How a gearmotor is made 
A gearmotor is an essential component in motor systems such as rotisserie motors , as it combines an electric motor with a gearbox. This combination allows for a lower output speed and higher torque than the motor alone would provide.
The structure of a gearmotor begins with the electric motor, which can be direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC), depending on the specific application. The motor is connected to the gearbox via a drive shaft. The gearbox is composed of a series of gears, usually planetary or worm gears, which reduce the motor's angular speed and increase the available output torque. The gearmotor's body is generally made of metal to ensure strength and durability, while the gears can be metal or composite materials to reduce noise and wear. Internal lubrication helps maintain optimal performance and extend the life of the device. In rotisserie motors, the gearmotor allows the spit to rotate at a constant and controlled speed, ensuring even cooking of the food. Thanks to its efficiency and reliability, the gearmotor is essential for improving the performance of rotating devices such as rotisseries.
What motor to use for rotisserie
When choosing a rotisserie motor, it's essential to consider several factors to ensure efficient and safe operation. First, motor power is crucial ; for home applications, a motor between 15 and 30 watts is generally sufficient. However, for professional use or heavier loads, a more powerful motor may be necessary. Another important aspect is rotation speed. A good rotisserie motor should offer a constant speed, usually between 2 and 3 revolutions per minute (RPM), to ensure even cooking of the meat. Load capacity is also essential: the motor must be able to support the weight of the meat without excessive strain. Therefore, it's advisable to choose a model with a load capacity greater than the maximum expected weight. Finally, durability and resistance to high temperatures are key features. Motors made of heat-resistant materials and protected against humidity ensure a long operating life. By considering these factors, you can choose the right motor that meets your specific rotisserie needs.
