SMD Vibration Motor
Our SMT surface mount vibration motors come in reels of 1000 units each, specifically designed for automatic placement directly from the reel. This eliminates the need for manual installation, allowing the vibration motors to be seamlessly integrated into the PCB assembly process. With this design, the motors can be easily soldered alongside other components, significantly boosting production efficiency and making them an ideal choice for mass production.
Featuring a “core” structure, these motors are built to endure high temperatures during the reflow soldering process. However, it’s important to avoid overheating to prevent damage, so it’s essential to adhere to the reflow oven temperature guidelines provided in the SMT vibration motor specifications.
Whether you’re developing a new product or enhancing an existing one, our SMD vibration motors are tailored to meet your requirements. Opt for TSL Motors to give your products a competitive edge in the market.

3 Essential Tips for Using SMD Vibration Motors
Reflow Soldering
When soldering SMD vibration motors, it’s crucial to follow the reflow oven temperature curve outlined in the motor’s datasheet. Exceeding the recommended temperature can damage the internal components of the motor, resulting in reduced performance and shortened lifespan.
Manual Soldering
During prototyping, avoid using flux when soldering the SMD vibration motor. Use a low-wattage soldering iron to ensure minimal heat exposure, and complete the soldering process as quickly as possible to prevent overheating and potential motor damage
Keep Liquids Away
The mini patch vibration motor is not fully sealed, so exposure to any liquids, such as flux washes or conformal coatings, should be avoided. Liquids entering the motor can cause significant damage to its internal structure, compromising its functionality.
Vibration Motor Customization
We specialize in redesigning and tailoring vibration motors to meet the unique needs of our customers. The interactive graphic below highlights some common customizations we offer for brushed DC vibration motors. We also apply similar modifications to other technologies, including brushless, LRA, solenoid, and piezo motors.
Eccentric Mass
Modification
Modify the size, material, shape, and quantity of the eccentric mass(es) to optimize the vibration frequency and amplitude for the desired performance range.
Brushed Or
Brushless
While long-life brushes come at a higher cost, they remain more affordable compared to adopting brushless technology.a
Lead And Connector
Customization
We offer customized wire sets with a variety of connectors from brands like JST, Hirose, AMP, Molex, AVX, and Kyocera, which can be integrated into any motor we manufacture. Additionally, we can attach PCB “backpacks” to certain motors to reduce local EMI or provide extra circuit functionalities.
Brushes And
Commutator
The brushes and commutator play a crucial role in the performance of any DC motor. The choice of plating type and the method used for the components significantly impact the motor’s lifespan, just as the type of commutator polishing and lubricant applied can also influence its durability.
Bearings And
Lubricants
Our motor designs incorporate a variety of bearings and lubricants, chosen based on the specific application environment. In larger vibration motors, the bearing typically experiences the most wear, primarily due to the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the eccentric mass. We will provide recommendations to help avoid any issues with the application specifications.
Encapsulation
In certain applications, covering the rotating mass can be beneficial. Additionally, the motor can undergo an extra sealing process to offer enhanced protection against the penetration of fluids.
