What Is a DC Geared Motor?

First, a DC geared motor combines a DC motor with a gearbox. The gearbox reduces the output speed and increases the torque. Therefore, this type of motor works well when a small drive needs low speed and higher torque.

Also, different gear ratios provide different output speeds and torque levels. As a result, you can select a ratio that fits the needs of your project.

For example, this compact N20 gear motor can work in robots, camera systems, smart devices, hobby projects, and small drive systems.

First, review the gearbox data for the 2.4V motor. As the ratio increases, the output speed becomes lower. At the same time, the available torque increases.

Note: all reduced no-load speeds have a tolerance of ±15%.

Next, the 5V motor provides the same range of gear ratios. Therefore, you can select a ratio based on the required output speed and torque.

Note: all reduced no-load speeds have a tolerance of ±15%.

In addition, the 12V motor has a higher base speed. As a result, it provides higher output speeds at the same gear ratios. However, higher ratios still reduce speed and increase available torque.

Note: all reduced no-load speeds have a tolerance of ±15%.

Why Is a Gearbox Used with a Motor?

First, a gearbox reduces the motor speed. At the same time, it increases the available output torque. Therefore, a small motor can drive a load at a slower and more useful speed.

Also, a gearbox gives designers more control over the final output speed. For example, a high gear ratio can provide slow movement for a small robot or smart device.

In addition, the gearbox can help match the motor to the driven load. As a result, the complete drive system can run more smoothly when the correct ratio is selected.

Typical Applications

For example, this compact N20 gearbox motor can be used in:

• Smart selfie sticks
• Smart camera gimbals
• Small robots
• Robot camera systems
• Smart home devices
• Small automation systems
• Compact drive mechanisms

Finally, select the voltage first and then compare the gear ratios. This makes it easier to match the required speed, torque, and power supply.
