Specification — 12V BLDC Planetary Gear Motor

12V BLDC Planetary Gear Motor For Compact Precision Drives.

A planetary gearbox packs maximum torque into the smallest possible diameter, and at 12V it runs from any standard battery. Shenghe 12V BLDC planetary gear motors deliver 0.5–60 Nm output torque from frames as small as 22mm, with backlash under 2 degrees standard and under 1 degree on precision grades. Built for robotics, camera systems, medical devices and portable instruments that need reliable torque from a compact 12V source.

  • 10W – 200W at 12VDC, frames from 22mm
  • Planetary ratios 5:1 to 100:1
  • Backlash under 2° standard, under 1° precision
  • Hall sensor + optional encoder for position control
Why 12V BLDC Planetary Gear Motors

Maximum Torque Density At Battery Voltage

  • Coaxial output — no offset shaft, saves mounting space
  • 3+ planet gears share load, improving life and shock tolerance
  • Low backlash suits position-critical camera and medical drives
  • Runs from 12V lithium or lead-acid packs — no boost converter needed
  • Brushless motor eliminates brush dust in clean-environment devices
  • Quiet operation under 50 dB for patient-facing medical equipment
