The Pololu 227:1 Metal Gearmotor 25Dx71L mm LP 6V w/ 48 CPR Encoder is a sophisticated component designed for precision motion control applications. It integrates a low-power, 6 V brushed DC motor with a robust 226.76:1 metal spur gearbox, offering a high-resolution quadrature encoder that provides 10,884.47 counts per revolution of the gearbox’s output shaft. This cylindrical gearmotor features a compact design with a diameter of just under 25 mm and a D-shaped output shaft extending 12.5 mm from the gearbox face plate.

The gearmotor's encoder utilizes a two-channel Hall effect sensor to detect the rotation of a magnetic disk on the motor shaft, delivering a resolution of 48 counts per revolution. This setup allows for precise monitoring of motor speed and direction, essential for applications requiring accurate control. The motor and encoder are equipped with six color-coded leads terminated by a 1×6 female header, compatible with standard 0.1″ male headers.

Mounting options include a face plate with threaded holes for M3 screws, compatible with custom-designed brackets for secure installation. The 4 mm diameter output shaft is versatile, supporting various wheels and hubs, including Pololu multi-hub wheels and universal aluminum mounting hubs. Additionally, the gearmotor is compatible with a range of motor controllers and drivers, facilitating integration into diverse control systems.

This gearmotor is ideal for projects demanding high precision and reliability, offering a balance of speed and torque suitable for various applications.
