(...) does. Use it only for low-torgue applications, and try not to stall it. -- Did you check the web site first?: (URL) (25 years ago, 8-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  micro motor sometimes stuck
 
Why does the micro motor sometimes get stuck, and then I have to turn it by hand to restart it? Hao-yang Wang (25 years ago, 8-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: micro motor sometimes stuck
 
(...) Well, I thought the reason that we always attach that pulley-with-rubber- lining thing (See (URL) for "friction pulley") to the micro motor is to avoid stalling the motor -- If the torgue is too high the friction pulley will slip. Apparently (...) (25 years ago, 11-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: micro motor sometimes stuck
 
Wow. I never noticed the rubber in those pulleys before. So you insert the axle just far enough to engage only the rubber lining? It seems that if you put the axle all the way through there is no slippage. (...) -- Did you check the web site first?: (...) (25 years ago, 11-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)

The micro motor doesn't have an axle output, just a standard stud. David Kadansky wrote in message <3760AC13.5079426F@p...ox.com>... (...) (25 years ago, 11-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: micro motor sometimes stuck
 
(...) I recall reading somewhere (but I can't remember where) that the micro- motor has an internal switch to protect it from stall current. If you hold it up to your ear when it's stuck and apply power, you can hear a small click, I think. Haven't (...) (25 years ago, 11-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: micro motor sometimes stuck
 
(...) The slippage is supposed to occur between the micro motor and the pulley, not the pulley and the axle. The micro motor uses a stud (rather than an axle) as its output, and you insert that stud into the rubber lining. Cheers, Hao-yang Wang (25 years ago, 11-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
