N20 6V 65RPM Metal Gear Motor | D-Type Shaft with Integrated Encoder

Description

The N20 6V 65RPM Metal Gear Motor is a high-precision micro-actuator engineered for projects that demand a perfect balance of torque, compact size, and rotational feedback. Featuring a durable all-metal gear train, this motor offers superior longevity and torque handling compared to plastic-geared alternatives. The integrated encoder allows for closed-loop control, enabling your system to track the motor’s position, speed, and direction with high accuracy—making it an essential component for robotics, automated miniature vehicles, and precise positioning systems.

Designed with a versatile D-type shaft, the motor ensures a secure, non-slip interface for your wheels, gears, or custom linkages. Its compact form factor makes it ideal for space-constrained designs, while the 6V operating voltage ensures compatibility with standard hobbyist battery packs and microcontroller-based motor drivers. Whether you are building an autonomous maze-solving robot, a precision camera slider, or a smart industrial prototype, this motor provides the reliability and data feedback necessary for advanced motion control.
