Type of motor?

Hi,
What type of motor is this? brushless? brushed? stepper? servo? and what would you suggest to control it? I will be using a Allen Bradley PLC to give commands to the controller. Thanks.

Devantech 24V, 49:1 Gear Motor w/ Encoder

Product Code : RB-Dev-38

Hi @rpatterson,

Welcome to the RobotShop community!

The RB-Dev-38 is a brushed DC motor with a gearbox (49:1). Since it has a stall current of 13 A, we’d recommend a DC motor controller that can survive that kind of current spikes. A good option might be the MD10C [RB-Cyt-132] or a shield version of it such as [RB-Cyt-116]

Sincerely,
