Metal Gear 42ZY Turbo Worm DC Speed Motor — RightAngle, Adjustable Speed, Large Torque, SelfLocking (5 RPM at 24V) Why you need it Compact rightangle worm gear motor that delivers torque in tight spaces. The worm gear design provides selflocking capability to hold loads without backdriving, making it ideal for applications that require stable positioning and safe load holding. Works with common DC systems (12V–24V) and offers adjustable speed control, allowing you to tailor performance to your application while maintaining reliable, durable metal gearing. Key features and benefits Model: Metal Gear 42ZY Turbo Worm DC Speed Motor (42ZY) Voltage: Compatible with 12V and 24V DC systems Rated speed: 5 RPM at 24V ( reduction, lowspeed output for precise motion) Gear type: Worm gear with metal gears for improved wear resistance and life Configuration: Rightangle output for compact mounting and spacesaving installations Selflocking: Worm gear mechanism prevents reverse rotation under load, eliminating the need for additional brakes in many setups Adjustable speed: Speed can be varied by changing the input voltage or using a compatible DC speed controller torque output: Designed to move and hold significant loads at low speeds Performance and compatibility Designed for use with 12V or 24V DC power supplies; expect lowspeed performance (5 RPM) when powered at 24V. Metal gear construction enhances durability in continuous or intermittent duty cycles; suitable for applications where mechanical reliability is important. Rightangle form factor simplifies mechanical integration into gearboxes, frames, or enclosures where axial space is limited. Practical applications Automated gates and latches: Low speed and selflocking capability make it suitable for gate operators, lock actuators, and security latches that must hold position securely. Industrial automation and conveyors: Use as a gearboxdriven actuator for indexing tables, slow conveyors, or material handling devices that require steady, controlled movement. Robotics and positioning systems: Ideal for robotic joints, tilt mechanisms, and adjustable platforms where torque, precise slow speed, and spaceefficient mounting are required. Installation and usage notes Speed control requires a compatible DC motor controller or adjustment of supply voltage; the motor itself does not include an electronic speed controller. Ensure power supply and wiring meet current requirements for your load; larger loads may increase current draw. Mount using suitable hardware for the rightangle housing and confirm shaft coupling compatibility with your driven component. What makes it different Combines a robust metalworm gear set with a compact 42ZY rightangle housing, delivering selflocking stability and strong torque at low RPMs without bulky external brakes or complicated gear trains.
