300 RPM BO Series DC Plastic Gear Motor | Straight Shaft | Mobile Robot Actuator
Description
Empower your high-speed robotic builds with the cost-effective SPIDER Automation 300 RPM BO Series DC Plastic Gear Motor (Straight). Designed to provide swift movement and optimal efficiency at lower operating voltages, this straight-shaft BO motor is a favorite among DIY hobbyists and educational robotics creators. Housed in a lightweight, durable plastic body, it serves as an economical alternative to heavy metal gear motors. Featuring built-in body mounting holes and compatibility with 69mm and 87mm plastic wheels, it integrates effortlessly into 2WD platforms, fast-moving line followers, and obstacle-avoidance rovers.
Key Features
- High-Speed Rotation: Reaches up to 300 RPM to provide quick acceleration and agile maneuvering for mobile robot cars.
- Flexible Operating Voltage (3V–12V): Allows you to adjust supply voltage to fine-tune motor speed and performance for your project.
- Shock & Vibration Absorption: Injection-molded plastic gears use elastic compliance to absorb sudden impacts and dampen mechanical vibrations.
- Quiet & Low-Friction Operation: Smooth rotational movement with minimal lubrication requirements and a low coefficient of friction.
- Corrosion-Resistant Housing: Completely eliminates the need for plating or protective external metal coatings.
Benefits
- Cost-Effective Prototyping: Provides an affordable, high-consistency actuation solution for bulk robotic kits and student workshops.
- Lightweight & Low Inertia: Weighing just 28g, it minimizes overall vehicle weight to maximize battery efficiency and speed.
- Easy Chassis Integration: Compact dimensions and integrated body mounting holes allow for quick in-circuit placement and bracket mounting.
Applications
- High-Speed Mobile Robots: Primary drive actuators for fast 2WD and 4WD robotic hobby cars, rovers, and racing buggies.
- 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.
