42GX-775 12V 500RPM 5.5Kgcm Planetary Gear Motor With Encoder

Planetary gears are often used when space and weight are an issue, but a large amount of speed reduction and torque are needed. This requirement applies to a variety of industries, including tractors and construction equipment where a large amount of torque is needed to drive the wheels. Planetary Gear Motor offers several advantages over other types of gearboxes, including higher power density, compact size, and lightweight. The power density of planetary gearboxes is high because the load is shared by multiple planet gears, which allows for more efficient energy transfer.

By itself, a DC motor can’t be controlled like a servo motor or a stepper motor. But add an encoder, and you unlock the full potential of the DC motor. Using this approach, you can harness the simplicity, even torque, and lightweight profile of a DC motor for your controlled application.
