DC Brushed Motors (PMDC)

A dc brushed motor — also called a PMDC motor — pairs a permanent-magnet stator with a brush-and-commutator rotor, so it runs on direct current with no external drive electronics. It costs less to build and control than a brushless equivalent, which is why this permanent magnet dc motor family remains the default choice for OEM assemblies where budget, simple two-wire drive, and short lead time matter more than a brush-free service life.

Advantages

Why Choose SLW DC Brushed Motors

  • Straightforward control

    A dc brush motor runs directly from a battery or a basic H-bridge, cutting BOM cost against commutation electronics.

  • Long service life by design

    Every pmdc motor batch passes incoming inspection, in-process testing, and final verification before it ships, so dimensional and performance drift stays low across a production run.

  • 15+ years for OEM/ODM

    We have built for OEM/ODM buyers for 15+ years, including projects for Japanese manufacturing clients, backed by ISO 9001:2015, RoHS, and Halogen-Free documentation.

  • Factory-direct pricing

    Our 2,400 m² Shenzhen facility and 56+ staff mean you are quoting against the manufacturer, not a reseller markup.

Specifications

Micro DC Motor Range: 12mm to 42mm

SLW Motor's brushed line is a micro DC motor catalog: twelve bare-motor frames from the 12mm N20 up to the 42mm 775, all permanent-magnet (PMDC) construction, and every one available paired with a spur, planetary, or worm gearbox.

ModelDiameterVoltageNo-Load SpeedMax-Output Torque

SLW-FF180-1131020mm (180 frame)24V11,562 rpm36.7 g·cm

Buyers needing more torque step up to a 12mm N50 Brushed Micro Gear Motor, with geared builds under high torque DC motors and DC gear motors.

Applications

DC Brushed Motor Applications

Robotics

In Learn More, these motors handle joint drives and end-effector actuation, where simple 2-wire control keeps wiring harnesses light.

That straightforward control scheme suits compact robotic systems that need reliable motion without complex drive electronics.

Learn More
Medical

For Learn More use, they drive pumps, dosing mechanisms, and diagnostic instruments that need consistent low-cost drive.

A permanent magnet dc motor keeps that drive consistent across the duty cycles these instruments demand.

Learn More
Consumer

In Learn More products, they power smart devices and appliances where per-unit cost matters at volume.

At high production volumes, the low part count of a dc brush motor helps keep each unit affordable.

Learn More
Automotive

Inside Learn More cabin and body components, they serve as small actuators and adjustment mechanisms.

These compact dc motor mini assemblies fit the tight spaces found in vehicle interiors and body panels.

Learn More
Industrial

For Learn More machinery, they run precision equipment and automation stations on a standard DC supply.

Because they operate on standard DC supply, they integrate easily into existing automation stations.

Overview

Brushed vs. Other Motor Types

A dc brush motor trades brush wear and a lower top-speed efficiency ceiling for a simpler, cheaper drive circuit — the opposite trade-off a brushless winding makes.

Buyers weighing a switch to brushless DC motors for wear-free operation, or an ironless-rotor coreless DC motors build for lower inertia, can compare the trade-offs in the brushed vs. brushless comparison.

  • Simpler Drive: Cheaper, simpler drive circuit
  • Brush Wear: Brushes wear over the motor's life
  • Efficiency Ceiling: Lower top-speed efficiency
  • Brushless Option: Wear-free operation, opposite trade-off
  • Coreless Option: Ironless rotor for lower inertia

FAQ

FAQ

Brush life depends on duty cycle, load, and voltage; custom options and certifications are confirmed during quotation.

How long do the brushes typically last?
Brush life depends on duty cycle, load, voltage, and how the motor is driven, so it isn't a single published figure.
What customization is possible?
Voltage winding, shaft length and output type, torque/speed tuning, and housing material can all be adjusted, with encoder integration available.
Is there a tooling cost for custom configurations?
It depends on how far the configuration departs from an existing frame; this is confirmed per request during quotation.
What certifications back these motors?
SLW Motor's brushed micro DC motor line is produced under ISO 9001:2015, with RoHS compliance and Halogen-Free test reporting documented.
