Motor Specs
(:toggle label="Faulhaber encoded right-angle DC gearmotor" hide faulhaber:)
Core - a Faulhaber 1524E006S123 brushed DC motor, with an 11 ohm coil, silver-alloy precious metal brushes, and a rated no-load speed of 13,400 RPM at 6V.
Gearhead - a true ratio of 140.759183:1 (approximately 141:1) using all-steel gears, heavy-duty lubricant, and pre-loaded ball bearings on the 3mm diameter output shaft. Attachment to the face of the gearhead can be done using either M2 or 2x56 screws on 10.92 mm diameter bolt circle.
Right-Angle Gearbox - includes two bevel gears, two decent ball bearings, and a small timing belt pulley on a 3mm shaft. The set screws accommodate 0.9mm hex keys.
Hall-Effect Encoder - an HES164A single-line quadrature encoder.
The Connector - pinout is shown below. M- and M+ are the motor power, +5V and GND are the power for the encoder, and A and B are the two quadrature encoder channels.
