SPIDER Automation Waveshare L-Shaped 12V 240 RPM DC Geared Motor | Hall Encoder | All-Metal Gearbox
Description
The SPIDER Automation Waveshare L-Shaped Permanent Magnet DC Gear Motor is an advanced, precision-engineered actuator featuring an integrated magnetic Hall encoder and a robust reduction group composed entirely of all-metal gears. Designed specifically for small-wheelbase robots and applications with strict space limitations, its unique L-shape configuration allows it to fit snugly where standard motors cannot. The reducer does not feature a self-locking function, meaning the output shaft can be smoothly rotated by hand. Equipped with a standard 6mm output shaft, it easily adapts to a wide variety of commercial couplings and wheels. Whether you are building feedback-controlled mobile platforms, smart rovers, or compact mechatronic systems, this motor delivers exceptional positioning accuracy and reliability.
Key Features
- Space-Saving L-Shape: Unique spatial orientation optimized for small-wheelbase mobile robots and tight enclosure integration.
- Built-In Hall Encoder: Features an 11-wire magnetic Hall effect encoder with a convenient PH2.0-6PIN terminal for precise motion tracking.
- All-Metal Reduction Gearbox: Built with a 42K gear reduction ratio utilizing high-grade metal gears for extended mechanical longevity.
- High Performance Output: Capable of reaching up to 240 RPM no-load speed and 125 RPM rated speed at 12V DC.
- Strong Torque Capacity: Delivers a dependable 4 kg-cm rated load torque and an impressive 8.5 kg-cm locked-rotor torque.
Benefits
- Precise Closed-Loop Control: Integrated encoder feedback allows for accurate speed regulation, odometry, and positioning tasks.
- Durable Construction: All-metal gear assembly resists wear under heavy load cycles compared to plastic gear alternatives.
- Flexible Coupling: Standard 6mm shaft diameter easily interfaces with standard wheels, hubs, and shaft couplers.
- Efficient Power Profile: Delivers 5.2W of power output with optimized current management (0.15A no-load, 1.0A max rated current).
Applications
- Compact Robotics: Small-wheelbase mobile robots, differential drive rovers, and line-following competition bots.
- Position-Controlled Systems: Automated guided vehicles (AGVs), robotic arms, and rotating display rigs requiring encoder feedback.
- Precision Mechatronics: Smart automation prototypes, compact testing jigs, and custom educational engineering projects.
