Bring movement to student projects with this miniature DC vibration motor. Its rotating offset weight creates vibration, making it a useful component for exploring unbalanced forces and building vibrating models.
The compact motor measures approximately 18.7 × 15.3 × 12mm and features a 13 × 7mm offset weight. It is a practical option for student investigations into how vibration can produce movement.
Key Features
- 3–3.7V DC operation: for compatible low-voltage projects.
- Offset weight: 13 × 7mm weight creates vibration as it rotates.
- Compact dimensions: approximately 18.7mm long × 15.3mm wide × 12mm high.
- Listed speed: 6,500rpm at 3.7V.
- Listed current: 380mA at 3.7V.
- Movement output: useful for vibrating models and experimental mechanisms.
What’s Included
- 1 × miniature DC vibration motor with offset weight.
Classroom Applications
Use in vibrating creatures, brush-based moving models and student-designed mechanisms. Students can investigate how mounting position, model shape and surface contact affect movement.
For microcontroller projects, use a suitable motor driver rather than connecting the motor directly to an output pin.
Curriculum Connections
Supports investigations into electrical-to-mechanical energy conversion, forces, movement and design testing in Australian secondary Design and Technologies, Victorian Systems Engineering and NSW Technology classrooms.
