5V 200RPM Microbit TT DC Gearbox Motor | 1:48 Gear Ratio | Dual Shaft
Description
Build your next mobile robot or DIY automation project with the cost-effective and reliable SPIDER Automation 5V 200RPM Microbit TT DC Gearbox Motor. Featuring a popular 1:48 gear ratio, this low-cost geared DC motor serves as an economical alternative to metal gear motors. It comes pre-wired with 2 x 200mm 28AWG wires featuring breadboard-friendly 2.54mm female connectors for rapid prototyping. Designed with dual shafts, it easily accommodates speed measurement code discs and matches seamlessly with standard 69mm or 87mm plastic gear motor wheels. Lightweight and easy to install with integrated body mounting holes, it is ideally suited for small-to-medium mobile robot cars and 2WD robotic platforms.
Note: These motors are available in three different colors (Yellow, Black, and White); color will be shipped randomly based on stock availability.
Key Features
- Cost-Effective Injection Molding: High-precision molded plastic construction offering excellent uniformity, low density, and low mechanical inertia.
- Shock & Vibration Absorption: Inherent elastic compliance of plastic gears allows the motor to absorb physical shocks and damp vibrations effectively.
- Quiet & Low-Maintenance Operation: Low coefficient of friction enables smooth, quiet operation with minimum or no lubrication requirements.
- Dual Shaft Utility: Extended dual shafts support wheel mounting on one side and speed encoder code discs on the other.
- Pre-Wired Breadboard Compatibility: Includes 200mm 28AWG wires terminated with 2.54mm (0.1”) female connector pins.
Benefits
- Lightweight & Compact: Reduces overall robot payload weight while fitting easily into tight in-circuit and chassis enclosures.
- Corrosion-Resistant: Elimination of metal plating or protective exterior coatings ensures long-lasting structural reliability.
- Resilient Tolerances: Greater gear resilience simplifies integration compared to rigid metal-gear alternatives.
- Plug-and-Play Prototyping: Ready to connect instantly to breadboards, microcontrollers, and motor driver shields.
Applications
- Mobile Robot Cars: Primary drive actuators for 2WD robotic platforms, line-following robots, and obstacle-avoidance buggies.
- Educational STEM Projects: Ideal motor set for school electronics kits, microbit learning boards, and beginner robotics workshops.
- Speed-Measurement Setups: Compatible with encoder discs for closed-loop speed tracking and odometry experiments.
- Custom Mechatronics: Small-scale automated mechanisms, moving mechanical displays, and lightweight DIY prototyping builds.
