New 12 Volt, Planetary DC Gearmotor

Midwest Motion Products is pleased to announce the release of a new DC Gear- Motor, Model # MMP-D33-455A-12V GP81-03.7 – Accepting any 12 Volt DC source, including battery power, this robust Gear Motor measures just 3.2” (max) Diameter, by 8.4” long and has a keyed output shaft of 19mm diameter by 40mm long.

Easy mounting is accomplished with 4 “face mount” M6 threaded holes, equally spaced on a 65mm Dia. B.C. or an optional NEMA34 Flange, is also available.

The output of this fully reversible gearmotor is rated for 18 IN-LBS continuous torque, at 1097 RPM, and 354 IN-LBS Peak. Despite its compact size, and weight of approximately 10 pounds, it’s an efficient design, requiring just 28.6 Amps at 12 Volts DC to generate its Full-Load Torque. This translates into long battery charge, very LOW-NOISE operation, and lower cost drive electronics. Motor windings for 18v, 24v, 28v, 36v, 42v, 48v, 60v & 90 Volts are available.

-This versatile design can accommodate our Standard Failsafe Brakes, and/or optical encoders.
-“Power On” brake designs also available.
-This unique design is rated at an “IP 54” protection level for operation in harsh environments.
-Variable Speed can be accomplished with our fully compatible Speed Controls.

Samples are available FROM STOCK for rapid prototyping needs.

Typical options available from the company include:
-Servo Motors with integral Optical Encoders
-Failsafe Brakes, Power-On Brakes, Analog Tachometers
-Planetary Gearheads, with standard ratios ranging from 3:1 to 2653:1, and standard or low backlash precision gearing available.
-Motor Winding Options include 18V, 24V, 28V, 36V, 42V, 48V 60V and 90 Volts DC.

Typical applications include Wheel Chair Lifts & Wheel Chair Ramps, Medical Patient Lifts, Solar Tracking, Battery Operated Motors & E.V. drives, Medical, Mobility / Accessibility products, Robotics & Automation including (Military) Unmanned Guided Vehicles, Semiconductor Processing Equipment, Actuators, Packaging & Labeling Machines, Woodworking & Metalworking Machines, Dynamic Displays for Tradeshows and many other applications requiring precise, powerful motion control.
