100 RPM L-Shape BO Series DC Plastic Gear Motor | Right-Angle Shaft | Mobile Robot Actuator
Description
Optimize your compact robotic chassis design with the cost-effective SPIDER Automation 100 RPM L-Shape BO Series DC Plastic Gear Motor. Featuring a perpendicular L-shape gearbox layout, this motor allows for flush, space-saving mounting in tight robotic enclosures where standard straight-shaft motors might not fit. Operating flexibly across a 3V to 12V voltage range, it delivers a steady 100 RPM speed and 1 kg-cm of torque. Enclosed in a lightweight, durable plastic body, it serves as an economical alternative to heavy metal gear motors. Equipped with an 8.5mm double D-type shaft and compatibility with 69mm or 87mm plastic wheels, it integrates seamlessly into 2WD mobile platforms, line followers, and obstacle-avoidance rovers.
Key Features
- L-Shape Perpendicular Gearbox: Right-angle shaft output designed to fit tight, low-profile robotic chassis and space-constrained enclosures.
- Wide Operating Voltage (3V–12V): Flexible power range allowing you to fine-tune motor performance and speed according to your project needs.
- Solid Torque Output: Delivers 1 kg-cm of rated torque to comfortably drive small-to-medium robotic chassis configurations.
- Shock & Vibration Absorption: Injection-molded plastic gear compliance absorbs sudden physical impacts and dampens mechanical vibrations.
- Quiet & Low-Friction Operation: Smooth rotational movement with minimum lubrication requirements and a low coefficient of friction.
Benefits
- Cost-Effective Prototyping: Provides an affordable, high-consistency actuation solution for bulk robotic kits and student workshops.
- Lightweight & Compact: Weighing just 30g, it minimizes overall vehicle weight while maximizing installation flexibility.
- Easy Chassis Integration: Integrated body mounting holes and perpendicular shaft alignment allow for streamlined bracket mounting.
Applications
- Compact Mobile Robots: Primary drive actuators for 2WD and 4WD robotic hobby cars, rovers, and explorer buggies requiring tight right-angle mounting.
- STEM & Educational Kits: Ideal motor choice for school science projects, microcontroller-driven prototypes, and robotics workshops.
- Automated Mechanisms: Small-scale industrial jigs, moving display models, and custom mechatronic automation.
