N20 Motor with Micro Metal Gearbox Data Sheet

What Is a DC Motor Gearbox?

First, a DC motor gearbox combines a small DC motor with a gear reduction system. The motor provides high-speed rotation. Then, the gearbox reduces this speed and increases the output torque.

Also, a gearbox can use spur, planetary, worm, or helical gears. This N20 motor uses a compact metal gearbox. Therefore, it provides a useful mix of small size, low speed, and higher torque.

First, this 2.4V motor offers several gear ratios. As the ratio increases, the output speed drops. At the same time, the gearbox provides more output torque.

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

Next, the 5V motor uses the same range of gearbox ratios. Therefore, you can select a low ratio for higher speed or a high ratio for more torque.

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

In addition, the 12V motor provides higher output speeds at the same ratios. However, increasing the gear ratio still reduces speed and raises the available torque.

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

What Is an N20 Gear Motor Used For?

First, an N20 reduction gear motor is a compact DC drive for small mechanical systems. Its metal gearbox reduces motor speed and increases output torque. Therefore, it works well when a project needs more force from a small motor.

Also, N20 gear motors can work with low-voltage power systems. For example, this series includes 2.4V, 5V, and 12V motor options. As a result, designers can use them in many battery-powered and compact devices.

In addition, the wide range of gear ratios makes it easier to match speed and torque to the application. A lower ratio provides more speed. However, a higher ratio provides slower motion and more torque.

Typical Applications

• Small robots
• Model cars
• Automated toys
• Miniature actuators
• Smart locks
• Small drive mechanisms
• Home automation devices
• Compact battery-powered equipment

Finally, check the available space, supply voltage, target speed, and required torque before selecting a gear ratio.
