Waveshare L-Shaped Permanent Magnet DC Gear Motor, Magnetic Hall Encoder, All-Metal Gear Motor.This product is an L-type permanent magnet DC geared motor with an encoder, and the reduction group is composed of all-metal gears. It is mainly used in robots with small wheelbases.
The reducer does not have a self-locking function, and the output shaft of the reducer can be rotated by hand. Due to the special structure of this product, it can be used on small wheelbase products with high requirements for space, and the output shaft diameter of 6mm can be adapted to a variety of couplings.
Features:
- L-shaped, suitable for robots with small wheelbases.
- 11 wire hall effect encoders.
- No-load speed is up to 240rpm.
- The locked-rotor torque can reach 8.5kg. cm.
- Rated load is 4kg.cm.
- The terminal type is PH2.0-6PIN.
