Specification — 48V BLDC Gear Motor

48V BLDC Gear Motor For Heavy Industrial And EV Applications.

When loads exceed what 24V can handle efficiently, 48V takes over. A 48-volt brushless DC gear motor halves the current draw for the same power, enabling thinner cables, cooler controllers and higher sustained output. Shenghe 48V BLDC gear motors pair high-power brushless rotors with heavy-duty planetary or worm gearboxes for electric vehicles, industrial conveyors, mixers and material handling drives up to 1500W.

  • 100W – 1500W rated power at 48VDC
  • Heavy-duty planetary and worm gearbox options
  • Output torque up to 300+ Nm
  • EV-compatible Hall sensor interface
Why 48V BLDC Gear Motors

High Power, Lower Current, Longer Cable Runs

  • Half the current of 24V at equal power — thinner cables, less heat
  • Suitable for 500W–1500W continuous loads that exceed 24V limits
  • Compatible with 48V lithium battery packs used in EVs and AGVs
  • Brushless design eliminates brush replacement on hard-to-access drives
  • Planetary gearbox handles high shock loads in industrial environments
  • 90–93% motor efficiency at optimal load point
