Robotics and Electromechanical Items Skip the INTRO, Go RIGHT to the CATALOG! These are the stock robotic, electromechanical, and motor items we have on hand, both new and used. There is a wide variety of material, and stock changes constantly. We try and keep a deep stock of commonly used parts, and always have some strange and bizarre items of high interest value. NAVIGATION: To make your life easier, and help you find exactly what you want, we have broken the on-line equipment catalogs into smaller sections. Just CLICK on the item you are looking for at the left, to see the matching catalog. Large graphical catalogs are a bit SLOW, so please give them a bit of time to load. The top header of each catalog is largely the same, so don't think you are stuck in one place! You can order anything here just by picking up the phone, and calling (250) 769-1834 during normal office hours, 8:30AM to 4:30PM PST, or FAX to (250) 769-4106. OR, Email your order to Susan HERE. SHIPPING: Preferred and Alternate Methods as of June 4, 2013, CLICK for FULL DETAILS ON OUR FAQ Page. Rates are now changing rapidy, often with little notice to us, so all the data has been transferred to the FAQ page for speedy updating.E-Mail Susan if you want a quote for shipping to other destinations, or for something heavy. Sorry, we can't safely send most individual small parts in a regular letter envelope, they get destroyed by the automated handling equipment. Sometimes we can ship very rugged parts in a small padded envelope by letter post. Ask Susan. There is a packing charge for large or heavy equipment, see the FAQ for details. If we have your valid data on file, you can just click on the ORDER email link to place an order and indicate your approval to bill, and we will do the rest. We keep your active information for ONE YEAR for your convenience. If this is the first time you have dealt with us, you can phone +1 (250) 769-1834 or FAX +1 (250) 769-4106 to supply the billing info, or send it by the email link, as you prefer. We accept VISA/MC, international money order, Paypal (to Susan@Okanagan.net), and bank wire transfer. Please note that there are transaction fees with Paypal and wire transfer payments, the wire transfer fee is frankly horrifying. CONDITION: To answer your questions, YES, we completely check and inspect all used equipment, and do not offer any we feel is substandard. That gear is normally scrapped, broken down for parts, or may get offered as-is in the HOT DEALS section, with the unit's condition clearly identified. If there are any marks or detracting features, we clearly state them in the listing. Before shipment, we burn in the equipment for 24 hrs. again and re-check to be sure it is good prior to shipment. The CATALOG will appear below shortly! |

2732-0141-2434-16 DC Gear Motors CLICK TO ORDER |
Powerful DC gearmotor custom made for Diebold by Igarashi Motor Sales USA, based on the N2732 27mm motor core and a 33mm diameter gearhead (33GN2732 series). Amazingly powerful for such a small motor, the gear ratio provides very high torque. Exact data is not known, but measurements show it seems to a ~9VDC motor at 0.13A (no load, ~100RPM) and runs down to 5VDC (at 0.08A (no load, ~50RPM), and up to 12VDC at 0.28A (no load) with no difficulty. Fully loaded mechanically, the current is roughly double. The drive shaft is a flatted 5mm steel shaft. See full dimensions HERE. They are excellent for all kinds of electromechanical devices, with enough rest friction to allow the motor to act as a brake on the drive shaft. Tapped holes (3 x 3mm) on the gearhead face ends of the motor for attachment. Fully reversible, with all leads floating, it has a 2mm mating connector, and the Tyco pc mounting 2mm connector is INCLUDED. Like all brush DC motors, some L/C filtering is useful to prevent interference with other parts of the circuit. New and unused, ready for your application! LOC: FB-TR Have 287 $9 each (w/conn), Factory tray of 18 for $150 |
S0157D/CYHC-42964-51 12VDC Motors HK S0157D Motor, CLICK for bigger PIC! CLICK TO ORDER |
CLICK to visit MK for motor data!
Merkle Korff S0157D/CYHC-42964-51 Motor, Amazingly powerful 2 inch diameter (4 inch long) 12VDC/0.18A gearmotors (approx. 1.4 rotations per second at 12VDC), with massive torque. These motors will run down to 1.8V/0.11A (with approx. 1 rotation per 12 seconds), still with torque so high you cannot stall the shaft by hand. Brush style motors with a reducing gearbox, they are excellent for all kinds of electromechanical devices, with enough rest friction to allow the motor to act as a brake on the drive shaft. There is also a tach/generator for speed control (yellow wires) which outputs approx. 9.29V/373Hz at 12VDC, and 1.2V/46Hz at 1.8V of motor drive. Red and black wires for the motor, with integral beads for RF suppression, and Faston connectors in the positive lead to allow a hash filter to be inserted. Tapped holes on both ends of the motor for attachment, and the shaft (D-flatted) is 0.25 inches in diameter by 0.65 inches long. Fully reversible, with all leads floating, draws 0.3A at 12VDC heavily loaded on the drive shaft. New and unused, ready for your application! LOC: MOT20 Last 1 $95 |
Toshiba TA8050P Motor Driver Toshiba TA8050P Motor Driver, CLICK for bigger PIC! CLICK TO ORDER |
Simple Interface to all kinds of robotic motor functions! 1.5A / 24VDC Bipoolar Motor Driver This chip provides direct DC motor control with 4 operating modes (2 logic line control) FORWARD, REVERSE, STOP and BRAKE. TTL level logic control, easily interfaced to switches, logic or microcontrollers, and 2 floating motor pins with suppression diodes, thermal, over-voltage and over-current protection. H-bridge design provides motor reversal with only a single power supply (typ. 6-16VDC) and motor braking function. Speed control can be achieved by combining a PWM signal with forward/reverse logic commands. A great way to control all kinds of small DC motors, works great with the motor above. DOWNLOAD the full PDF Data Sheet HERE. We also have a high quality matching heatsink with PC mounting tabs that can be used with the TA8050P, see PIC HERE, requires one hole to be drilled for IC mounting, $2 each. Have 1,764 pcs., $3 each Factory Tube of 28 pcs, $49 |
