6V 530RPM 30:1 Micro Gear Motor with Encoder

This DFRobot micro gear motor has a 30:1 metal gearbox and a built-in Hall encoder. The encoder measures the speed continuously, so the motor can be controlled precisely with a controller, for example in small robots with differential drive. The Hall sensor has 7 pole pairs and delivers 420 pulses per revolution of the output shaft (7 × 2 × 30). The output shaft has a D profile, the brass faceplate has two M1.6 threads for mounting. The motor also runs without evaluating the encoder.
