http://www.clockparts.com/clock-movements-motors/ Finding Clock Movements as well as Motors for Display Timepieces Clock activities and also motors are the trade as well as lay terms, specifically, for the engines that make contemporary timepieces function. Utilizing clock activities and motors to attain the specific attributes wanted is eminently satisfying and enjoyable. In this post, we focus on these mechanisms and the different components attached to them, such as dials, hands, chimes, as well as pendulums. Clock movements (or electric motors) are like black boxes with a single estimate of concentric shafts that are enabled to turn independent of one another. Each hand (hour, min, and also second) connects to its very own shaft. The motion calculates the immediate angle of rotation for each shaft. Nowadays these estimations are executed electronically, however initially they were obtained mechanically. A hefty weight or a securely curled springtime used torque to the main gear or flywheel, making it want to revolve in a particular direction. A calibrated pendulum, operating in tandem with an escapement system, established the amount of turn at the appropriate pace (like a metronome). The contemporary digital approach has actually changed the flywheel-pendulum-escapement combination with a collection of pulses created by a quartz crystal. The frequency of these pulses is dependably accurate, as well as their sum is accumulated right into a computer system register. When the matter crosses numerous limits, one or more of the motor shafts are revolved appropriately. The basic purpose of the clock activity is to tell time in the common layout, that of hr, minutes, and secs in a 12-hour cycle. But there are variants that reveal either added things or various things. The extra things are temporal extensions (longer cycles) or weather condition phenomena, as well as if you leave out the time element completely the clock motor is changed with a climate electric motor. When clock motions track supporting temporal information, changed, adjusted dials, as well as perhaps added hands, are commonly called for. As an example, mosting likely to a 24-hour cycle increases the variety of figures representing hrs. Additionally, the hr hand has to relocate at half the rate (unless the hrs are doubled up, where case the original rate is used).

Movements Motors
Here you will find the most comprehensive line of battery operated quartz and electric clock movements (MVT) on the
market today. We have wide variety of time only MVT, pendulum MVT, chime MVT, bim-bams, and high torque MVT for
driving large clock hands up to 17 1/2.
See below the video to view our line of products
On this page you will see are most comprehensive line of battery operated quartz motors on the market today. We believe
that when laying out your do it yourself project you should have a number of options so that your project can contain all
the parts you need. In addition to containing the most reliable, accurate and popular motors we have a number of very
specific purpose motors for time, weather and trigger applications. All are powered by AA battery or C cell battery.
Additionally we can easily convert to electric power by adding our battery to electric converter. This converter allows you to
have the best of both, electric power and battery backup.

2. Mini Quartz Clock Movement
Our line of mini quartz motor kits are perfect when space is a priority. The weather MVT is an interesting category. It
includes thermometer MVT and well as tide MVT and time and tide MVT. Our thermometer clock parts are for both indoor
and outdoor use and can operate hands up to 10” long if needed. They use out standard American “I” shaft minute hands,
so the selection is amazing. The tide MVT have a hand that will make one revolution every 24 hours and 50 minutes.
Our Specialty MVT kits section is truly unique. It includes reverse time (for Barbershop Clocks), mechanism that show the
day of the week, motors that operate on 24 hour (military) time, calendar mechanisms that show the time and date, clock,
trigger mechanism that cause a device to chime on the hour and our rotary pendulum mechanism.
High Torque Movements
Our selection of MVMT kits or mechanisms is second to none. We also offer the widest selection of American made parts
available anywhere. We have an entire category of just Made in America MVT. The accuracy and reliability of our USA Made
Motors is excellent. You’ll be impressed.
You will also find the largest selection of high torque MVT anywhere. These MVT are used when operating clock hands that
are over 7 inches long. Many wood workers are building large wall clocks and the high torque auto set MVT is a key element
of those projects. It will automatically adjust for the spring and fall time changes and drive large hands. Visit high torque
clock movement to see our wide selection.
Daylight Saving Motors
Auto Set Movements have taken the world by storm. No longer dependent of receiving a radio signal from Colorado the
mechanism will “spring forward” and “fall back” twice a year to adjust to Daylight Savings Time just when you need them
to. We have a US version and well as a world version. Best of all, these are also High Torque MVT capable of operating clock
hands up to nearly 18 inches. Imagine not having to get out a ladder to change the time twice a year on a large wall clock
high up on your wall!
Clock Parts chime MVT are a popular option, and we have a great selection. We go from basic Westminster Chimes that
sound on the hour with an hour count, to our Quad chime offering 4 different chime choices with a volume control and the
option of a Night Strike Silencing option. This is an outstanding selection we have, the best in the industry. We even have
MVT that will allow you to record 10 seconds of whatever sound you would like. Pretty amazing.
We have a great selection of C cell standard MVT in both regular and pendulum models. These are perfect for applications
when changing batteries is problematic. C cell movements have the longest battery life of all of our mechanisms and can last
for several years if an alkaline battery is used. They are also good for use with hands between 5 and 7 inches, when you
need a little extra power but not high torque MVT.
Pendulum Motors
Pendulum MVT are another dominant category. We have American made AA pendulum MVT, More powerful C cell pendulum
MVT and finally pendulum drives that have the capacity to operate up to 7 ounce (up to 25 inch) and 10 ounce (up to 41
inch) pendulums.
