Description
Considered the “Big Brother” to the popular IG32 and IG42 series, the IG45-04K Planetary DC Geared Motor is a high-speed, heavy-duty industrial actuator engineered for demanding automation and robotics applications. Built around a robust 45mm diameter planetary (epicyclic) gearbox with a 4:1 gear ratio, this 24V motor delivers an impressive rated speed of 1620 RPM paired with a solid 25 N-cm of torque. By omitting built-in encoders, the IG45 series provides exceptional power output and high transmission efficiency at a highly cost-effective price point.
Driven by a reliable brushed permanent magnet DC motor drawing 3.5A rated current with a 49.5W power rating, this motor is designed to handle rigorous mechanical stress with minimal backlash. Every unit undergoes rigorous bench-testing at the warehouse for its extreme pushable limits, ensuring dependable, long-term performance. Whether you are building high-speed autonomous rovers, automated conveyors, or powerful mechanical drive systems, the IG45-04K offers unmatched velocity and muscle for your build.
