New Miniature DC Gearmotor with Encoder



Nidec Copal USA Corp. of Torrance, CA announces a new miniature integrated DC motors, geartrain, and encoder assembly with a 0.63 inch OD (16mm) by 2.46 inches (62.4mm) long.

The Nidec-Copal HG16 Series DC gearmotor is available in 12 models with 3 voltages at 6v, 12v, and 24v, in combination with 4 gear ratios of 30:1, 60:1, 120:1, and 240:1. The rated torque varies from 3.47 oz-in (30:1) to 6.94 oz-in (240:1). Short direction stall torques for the HG16-030AA (30:1 ratio at 6 volts DC) reach 11.0 oz-in, and for the HG16-240AC exceed 56.0 oz-in.

The optional miniature encoder allows the user to accurately position the HG series DC gearmotor in increments of 75, 150, 160, and 200 counts of positions per revolution. Gearmotor no load speeds range from 390 rpm in the 30:1 gearmotor model down to 60 rpm in the 240:1 models. Typical applications include small medical lab equipment, printers, and security cameras (pan and tilt systems).
