Micro Gear Motor
A micro gear motor is a power transmission device. It uses different-sized gears and reducers to adjust speed and increase torque. A DC motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The micro geared motor reduces speed and boosts torque. It is a precision device. There are different types based on the transmission method. These include small gear motors,spur gear motor, worm gear motors, and planetary gear motors. Gear motors can also be classified by transmission stages. They can be single-stage or multi-stage motors.
A micro geared motor, also called a micro reducer motor, combines a motor and a reducer. It reduces speed and increases torque to suit mechanical equipment needs. This combination is sometimes referred to as a gear reducer or gear reducer motor. Different gear ratios offer various speeds and torque. This greatly enhances the use of DC motors in the automation industry.

Common Gear Motor Designs
Regardless of the chosen gearmotor technology, several standard form factors and design considerations are widely used across different industries. Here are a few examples that can help define your ideal solution.
Exposed Frame

Approximately one-third of our designs feature an exposed structure, mainly when the gearbox frame is square or rectangular in shape.
Sealed Frame

Some gearbox designs are round, which allows for easier coverage of the gears. The primary advantage of this design is that it helps keep debris out.
Fold-Back

If space is limited in length, consider using a fold-back gearbox. Alternatively, a non-concentric offset gearbox shaft could be an option.
Shaft Customizations

Certain applications require specialized shafts. Options such as extended or shortened shafts, d-cuts, keyway cuts, location holes, and threaded shafts can all be accommodated.
Clutches and Braking Mechanisms

Clutches allow the gearbox to be separated from the application, while mechanical brakes can secure the gearbox shaft in a stationary “park” position.
Advanced Motion Control Systems

While precise movement is often required, motion controllers can also play a crucial role in prolonging the lifespan of gear motors by optimizing their operation.
