Product Description (Detailed):
Empower your robotic creations with our high-performance 100 RPM 12V DC Geared Motor with Centre Shaft, specifically engineered for demanding robotics applications. This robust DC geared motor provides an ideal balance of speed and substantial torque, making it perfect for driving mobile robot platforms, robotic arms, and automated systems requiring precise, controlled movement. The integrated metal gearbox significantly increases the motor's output torque while reducing its rotational speed to a stable 100 Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) at 12 Volts, ensuring powerful operation under load. Its centre shaft design features a threaded bore, allowing for direct and secure attachment of wheels, pulleys, or other mechanical components, simplifying your assembly process. With a typical no-load current of around 60mA and a load current of up to 300mA, this 12V geared motor is energy-efficient and highly compatible with common motor drivers like the L298N H-bridge module. Whether you're building an all-terrain robot, a line follower, or a complex automation project, this high-torque 100 RPM motor delivers the reliability and performance necessary for your innovative designs.
The 100RPM 12V DC Geared Motor is a versatile, high-torque brushed DC motor with a durable metal gearbox, optimized for applications requiring steady power at a moderate speed. Its 100 RPM output makes it ideal for automated systems, robotic platforms, and small mechatronic designs.
Whether you're prototyping a robot or designing a motion system, this motor ensures stable performance with smooth output. The 6mm D-shaft supports easy integration with wheels, pulleys, or couplers, and the mounting holes on the faceplate simplify installation.
