Description
The IG42E-04K Planetary DC Geared Motor is a high-performance, industrial-grade actuator imported from an established Taiwanese manufacturer renowned for exceptional quality and long-term durability. Built around an efficient epicyclic (planetary) gear train, this motor delivers the low backlash, high torque density, and smooth power transmission required for demanding robotics and automation applications. Housed in a robust 42mm diameter metal gearbox, this 12V model provides superior power output compared to smaller 32mm alternatives.
Operating at a rapid 1400 RPM with a rated torque of 22 N-cm, this 4:1 gearhead motor is ideal for general-purpose industrial automation, high-speed mobile robots, and precise positioning systems. It features an integrated single-channel encoder providing real-time rotational feedback to help you monitor speed and position accurately. Rigorously tested for extreme operating limits, the IG42E series offers the reliability and performance that professional designers and robotics engineers demand.
