Both round spur gear motors and planetary gear motors can achieve 1000RPM at 12V, thanks to the availability of small gear ratios. The specific model will determine the exact performance characteristics. Here’s a list of models that can be configured for 12V with a 1000RPM output:
- 12mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG12 series
- 15.5mm round spur geared DC motor—–HT-SOG15 series
- 20mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG20 series
- 25mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG25 series
- 27mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG27 series
- 30mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG30 series
- 32mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG32 series
- 37mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG37 series
- 50mm round spur geared DC motor——-HT-SOG50 series
- 16mm planetary geared DC motor———HT-POG16 series
- 22mm planetary geared DC motor———HT-POG22 series
- 28mm planetary geared DC motor———HT-POG28 series
- 32mm planetary geared DC motor———HT-POG32 series
- 36mm planetary geared DC motor———HT-POG36 series
- 42mm planetary geared DC motor———HT-POG42 series
Now that you know all these motors can be configured to deliver 1000RPM at 12V, how do you choose the right one for your application?
Key Considerations for Selecting the Right Motor
While speed is a primary consideration, torque is equally important. When selecting the right DC gear motor, you need to take into considertion voltage, speed, and torque for optimal performance:
- Insufficient torque: The motor will be unable to move the load in your application.
- Excessive torque: This may damage components within your product, leading to mechanical failures or inefficiencies.
If you’re unsure about your torque requirements, don’t hesitate to consult our team of sales engineers. We can help you match the right motor for your specific needs.
Brushless or Brushed?
The motors mentioned above are available in both brushed and brushless versions. Here’s how to choose:
- Brushed motors are cost-effective and simple to control, making them ideal for basic applications.
- Brushless motors are much more expensive, but have longer lifespan, and quieter operation, making them perfect for commercial products or high-end products
Each motor type comes with its unique set of advantages and trade-offs. For example, your application might be cost-sensitive, noise-sensitive, or might need low current draw for extended battery life. Some products may require motors with self-locking capabilities to hold a load.
