Motors and Gearboxes

This wide selection of brushed DC metal gearmotors lets you choose the optimal torque and speed for your particular application. These motors are available in a variety of sizes and gear ratios.

Linear actuators convert the rotation of a DC or stepper motor into linear motion, allowing you to push or pull objects. Versions with feedback or integrated stepper motors allow for precise position control.

Stepper motors allow for precise position control without the need for a feedback system and are capable of continuous rotation, unlike standard hobby servos.

With integrated motor-control circuitry and position feedback, servos are an easy way to add controlled motion to your robotics or electronics project. Whatever your application, we probably have a servo for it!

A variety of low-current brushed DC motors with plastic gearboxes that offer power and speed comparable to a continuous-rotation RC servo at a fraction of the price.

Tamiya manufactures a wide variety of inexpensive brushed DC motors and gearboxes that are great for hobbyists and students. Many of the gearmotors are kits that can help you understand how gearboxes work and allow for user-configurable gear ratios.

These small DC motors have offset masses that vibrate when they rotate, providing tactile feedback.
