Pololu 172:1 Metal Gearmotor 25Dx71L mm LP 12V with 48 CPR Encoder

The 172:1 Metal Gearmotor 25Dx71L mm LP 12V with 48 CPR Encoder is a robust gearmotor that combines a low-power, 12V brushed DC motor and a 171.79:1 metal spur gearbox. The gearmotor features an integrated 48 CPR quadrature encoder on the motor shaft, providing 8245.92 counts per revolution of the gearbox's output shaft. The cylindrical gearmotor is just under 25mm in diameter, while the D-shaped output shaft is 4mm in diameter and extends 12.5mm from the gearbox's faceplate. There is also an option to purchase this gearmotor without an encoder. The 172:1 Metal Gearmotor is perfect for applications that require precise movement and speed control. The integrated encoder provides feedback on the gearbox's output, allowing for precise control over speed and position. This makes it ideal for use in robotics, automation systems, and other applications where precision movement is crucial.Key specifications of the gearmotor include a 12V voltage, a no-load performance of 33 RPM and 60 mA, and stall extrapolation of 13 kg⋅cm (180 oz⋅in) and 0.9 A. These specifications highlight the gearmotor's ability to deliver high performance and reliability in a wide range of applications.This gearmotor stands out due to its unique combination of a low-power DC motor and a high-ratio metal spur gearbox. The integrated 48 CPR quadrature encoder provides precise feedback on the gearbox's output, enhancing the accuracy and control of your applications. The compact size and D-shaped output shaft make it easy to integrate into your projects, while the option to purchase without an encoder offers flexibility for different needs.
