N20 12V 300RPM Micro Metal Gear Motor with Encoder
VAT inclusive; Computed calculations added locally.
Overview
The N20 12V 300RPM Micro Metal Gear Motor with Encoder is a compact geared DC motor designed for small-scale robotics, automation, and motion-control applications. Its small metal gearbox provides increased torque in a space-saving package, while the integrated encoder provides rotational feedback for applications requiring speed or position monitoring.
The motor is designed around a 12V nominal operating voltage, with the supplied information indicating practical operation across approximately 3V to 12V. Rotation may begin at a much lower voltage under suitable conditions, but low-voltage operation can reduce available torque and performance.
N20 micro metal gear motors are available with a broad selection of gear ratios, allowing designers to choose between higher speed and greater output torque. Except for certain 1000:1 variants, the different gear-ratio versions generally maintain the same compact physical form factor, making it easier to change motor gearing when project requirements evolve.
With its small footprint and encoder feedback, this motor is well suited for miniature robot vehicles, robotic mechanisms, smart toys, compact automation systems, camera mechanisms, and DIY motion-control projects.

Product Technical Information
Technical Details
The N20 12V 300RPM Micro Metal Gear Motor with Encoder combines a small DC motor, metal reduction gearbox, and encoder feedback in a compact package. It is designed for projects where available space is limited but controlled mechanical movement is required.
The 300RPM output speed makes this variant suitable for small robotic wheels, compact mechanisms, and other applications where moderate rotational speed and geared torque are desirable. The integrated encoder can provide feedback to a microcontroller, allowing the motor's rotation to be monitored for applications such as speed measurement, wheel odometry, and closed-loop control.

Voltage and Gear Ratio Notes
The supplied information identifies 12V as the nominal voltage and indicates that these motors can generally operate around 3V–12V. Actual speed, torque, current consumption, and startup behavior vary with applied voltage and mechanical load.
N20 motors are available in multiple gear ratios, from relatively low ratios for higher speed to high ratios for greater output torque. The exact gear ratio, encoder resolution, no-load current, stall current, and torque should be confirmed for the specific motor variant before designing a precision or high-load application.
Avoid operating the motor above its intended voltage for extended periods, as excessive voltage can increase heating and may shorten motor life.
