This is the popular DC Geared Motor featuring an additional magnetic quadrature type rotary encoder. The quadrature encoders provide two pulses which are out of phase, for sensing the direction of the shaft rotation.

Hence, this SPG30E-60K DC Geared Motor with Encoder features both advantages of position sensing as well as direction sensing of the rotating shaft. This application flexibility of the encoders will allow you to control the speed of the base motor very precisely.

Note: that the encoder casing comes in 2 colors either as BLACK or WHITE.

The SPG30E-60K is a compact brushed DC motor. The SPG30E-60K DC Geared Motor with Encoder is a low-cost solution for projects such as the medium-size Robot, Omni Drive Robot etc.

This SPG30E-60K DC Geared Motor with Encoder equips 60:1 gearbox for giving the torque of 3 kg-cm. The output shaft of the motor is D-shaped which facilitates the better coupling. The shaft has the length os 15.5 mm with the diameter of 6mm.

This is very useful especially when we are building a pulling system or conveyor system. Two Hall effect sensors are placed 90° apart to sense and produce two output A and B which is 90 degree out of phase and allowing the direction of rotation to be determined.

The motor is rated at 12V which will produce 75 RPM with the torque as high as 3 kg-cm.

Mounting Instructions

For mounting, the depth of the thread of the motor is 3.2 mm. So, you need to use 3.2 mm length of M3 size screw (not included with the thickness of the bracket). The longer screw will damage the gearbox. You may need to consider the thickness of the bracket or other mechanisms that you need to attach to the motor for choosing the right length of the screw.

Features : 

• It equips 5V Quadrature Hall Effect Encoder.
• You can monitor both the position and the direction of rotation
• Resolution of the encoder output:
• 3 pulses per rear shaft revolution, single channel output
• 900 810 counts per main shaft revolution
• Perfect for Bidirectional Position Sensing.
