Description
The IG42E-14K Planetary DC Geared Motor is a high-performance, industrial-grade actuator imported from an established Taiwanese manufacturer renowned for exceptional quality and durability. Built around an efficient epicyclic (planetary) gear train with a 14:1 gearhead ratio, 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 and torque compared to smaller 32mm alternatives.
Operating at a robust 405 RPM with a rated torque of 64 N-cm, this motor is driven by a brushed permanent magnet DC motor drawing up to 5.5A with a 41.3W power rating. It features an integrated single-channel encoder providing real-time rotational feedback (70 PPR) for accurate speed and positioning control in closed-loop systems. Extensively bench-tested at the warehouse for its extreme pushable limits, the IG42E-14K ensures dependable, professional-grade performance for your automated projects.
