The 3268E is a 12 volt gear motor, generating 17.3 Kg-cm of torque at 18 RPM. Since this motor has a lower power output for its size, you can expect it to have a longer lifespan than other motors.
This motor comes equipped with an E4P US Digital Encoder, which keeps track of the motor's rotation, allowing you to control your motor precisely.
The planetary gearbox on this motor is more sophisticated than a typical spur gearbox and will provide greater efficiency, higher torque, and quieter motor operation.
The 3268E DC motor connects to either of the following controllers:
If you decide to use the 1065, you can connect the encoder directly into its encoder input. If you decide to use the 1064, you'll also need one of the following devices to read your encoder:
- 3268 - 12V/17.3Kg-cm/18RPM 139:1 DC Gear Motor
- 3265E - 12V/0.5Kg-cm/670RPM 3.7:1 DC Gear Motor w/ Encoder
- 3266E - 12V/1.9Kg-cm/175RPM 14:1 DC Gear Motor w/ Encoder
- 3267E - 12V/6.6Kg-cm/49RPM 51:1 DC Gear Motor w/ Encoder

The torque this motor produces when it stalls exceeds the rated strength of the gearbox. This means that stalling or very heavily loading this motor can cause serious damage to the gearbox. To avoid damage, avoid sudden loads or any load higher than the Maximum Strength of Gears spec. |
