Wiring Connections
- Power (+): Connect to the positive terminal of the 12V DC power supply.
- Power (-): Connect to the negative terminal of the 12V DC power supply.
- Motor Terminals: Two terminals for the motor, where positive and negative connections determine the direction of rotation.
Power
- Operating Voltage: 12V DC.
- Current Consumption: Typically draws around 1-2A depending on load and conditions.
Input and Output
- Input: Requires a 12V DC power source.
- Output: Provides rotational motion with a speed of 60 RPM and high torque, suitable for driving wheels, gears, or other mechanical components.
Physical Characteristics
- Size: Compact and designed to fit into small spaces.
- Dimensions: Approximate dimensions (L x W x H) may vary, but typically around 50 mm x 50 mm x 70 mm.
- Weight: Light to moderate weight, allowing easy integration into projects without significant bulk.
Technical Specifications
- Speed: 60 RPM at 12V DC input.
- Gear Ratio: Designed to achieve 60 RPM from a higher-speed motor input, providing a balance between speed and torque.
- Motor Type: DC brushed motor with an integrated gear train.
- Operating Temperature: Typically operates within -10°C to +40°C.
Additional Features
- Built-in Gearbox: Includes a built-in gearbox that reduces speed while increasing torque.
- Bidirectional Rotation: Can be reversed by changing the polarity of the power supply connections.
- Low Noise: Operates quietly compared to some other gear motors.
How to Use
- Power Connection:
-
- Connect the positive terminal of your 12V power supply to the positive terminal on the motor.
- Connect the negative terminal of your power supply to the negative terminal on the motor.
- Mounting:
-
- Secure the motor to a stable mounting surface or bracket to ensure it does not move or vibrate during operation.
- Ensure that the motor’s output shaft is properly aligned with any attached components to avoid unnecessary wear or stress.
- Motor Control:
-
- Direction Control: Change the direction of rotation by swapping the positive and negative connections.
- Speed Control: The speed is fixed at 60 RPM, but you can use a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controller if variable speed control is needed (note that this may require additional circuitry).
- Integration:
-
- Use appropriate couplings or gears to connect the motor shaft to other mechanical parts or systems.
- Ensure that the motor is used within its specified voltage and current ratings to avoid damage or overheating.
- Maintenance:
-
- Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage.
- Keep the motor clean and free from dust or debris that could affect its performance.
- Troubleshooting:
-
- If the motor does not run, check connections and ensure the power supply is providing the correct voltage.
- If the motor stalls or has reduced performance, verify that it is not overloaded and that the load is within the motor’s capability.
The 16GA-050 12V DC Gear Motor with 60 RPM is a versatile and reliable motor choice for various applications requiring controlled speed and high torque.
