DC planetary reduction motor is a common power transmission equipment, which is mainly divided into two types: brushed DC reduction motor and brushless reduction motor.
Brushed DC motor, because it uses carbon brushes as power source, although it works stably, its service life is relatively short due to the wear of carbon brushes. The general brush reduction motor on the market has a service life of about 1000 hours, and some even have a service life of only a few hundred hours.
In contrast, brushless DC reduction motor has significant advantages. Due to the absence of carbon brushes, its life is significantly improved, usually reaching more than 3000 hours, or even longer. This motor is not limited by the life of carbon brushes and is more durable.
In terms of performance, brushless reduction motors are known for long life, low noise and high torque. However, these advantages also make its price higher than that of brushed motors, sometimes even more than doubled. This reflects its performance and quality advantages to a certain extent.
DC planetary reduction motors are widely used in various fields, such as office automation, smart home, production automation, medical equipment, financial machinery, and game consoles. They are used to achieve smooth torque transmission and provide high torque even in a small volume. For example, they play a key role in automation equipment such as hollow blinds, smart toilets, automatic clothes drying racks, power tools, automatic window openers, automatic curtains, glass curtain walls, bank ATMs, automatic banknote counters and banknote vending machines.
