With a 3V to 6V input range, the TT DC Gear Motor drives mobile robotics and DIY Arduino projects. Rotation speeds vary between 100 and 150 RPM depending on the applied voltage. A 1:48 reduction ratio provides 0.8 kg/cm of stall torque for consistent movement.
Key Features
- Dual Shaft Design: 5.5mm D-type output shafts on both sides. Mounts wheels and encoders simultaneously.
- High Torque Gearbox: 1:48 internal reduction ratio using plastic gears. Resists road dust during outdoor testing.
- Low Power Draw: 60–200 mA current consumption during no-load operation. Connects directly to L298N motor drivers.
- Standard Compatibility: Works with 65mm diameter rubber wheels and chassis. Simplifies building smart vehicle actuators.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the torque of a 3V-6V DC gear motor?
This motor produces a stall torque of 0.8 kg/cm. It provides enough force to drive a standard 65mm robot wheel.
Can I run a 6V gear motor with Arduino?
Arduino pins don't provide enough current to drive this motor directly. Use an L298N or L293D driver module instead.
