Description

The IG42E-104K Planetary DC Geared Motor is a heavy-duty, ultra-high-torque actuator imported from an established Taiwanese manufacturer renowned for exceptional quality and durability. Built around an efficient epicyclic (planetary) gear train with a high 104:1 gearhead ratio, this motor delivers the low backlash, exceptional 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 massive mechanical advantage, significantly outperforming smaller 32mm alternatives.

Operating at a controlled 63 RPM with an incredible rated torque of 196 N-cm, this motor is driven by a brushed permanent magnet DC motor drawing up to 5.5A. It features an integrated single-channel encoder providing real-time rotational feedback (120 PPR) for accurate speed and positioning control in closed-loop systems. Extensively bench-tested at the warehouse for its extreme pushable limits, the IG42E-104K ensures dependable, professional-grade performance for heavy-duty automation and robotics projects.
