Velleman DC-Motor 3V 350mA – Compact Brushed Motor for Precision Applications
The Velleman DC-Motor 3V 350mA is a small brushed DC motor designed for low-voltage, low-power applications in robotics, models, and hobby electronics. It delivers 14,200 RPM at 3V with a rated current draw of 350mA, making it suitable for compact drive systems where space and power efficiency matter.
14,200 RPM no-load speed at 3V provides fast, responsive motion for lightweight mechanisms
Brushed construction with sensorless commutation keeps the design simple and cost-effective
2 mm shaft diameter with standard mounting compatibility for most small gearboxes and mounts
Compact 27 mm length and 23.8 mm outer diameter fit into tight enclosures and model chassis
Das zeichnet den Velleman DC-Motor 3V 350mA aus
Unlike larger hobby motors, this unit balances a high kV rating (4,733 kV) with a modest 350mA current draw, allowing it to run on standard 3V battery packs without demanding high capacity. The brushed, sensorless design means no external controller is needed for basic rotation, reducing wiring complexity in small projects.
Ideal für...
Hobbyist builders and students working on small robotic arms, conveyor mechanisms, or fan-driven cooling units in 3D-printed enclosures. Also suited for powering lightweight wheels or propellers in RC models where a compact, low-voltage motor is required.
Anwendung von Velleman DC-Motor 3V 350mA
Mount the motor using the 2 mm shaft into a compatible gearbox or direct-drive hub
Connect the two terminals to a 3V DC power source (e.g., 2× AA batteries or a 3V regulator)
Control direction by reversing polarity; speed can be adjusted with a simple PWM controller
Secure the motor in the chassis with the 23.8 mm body diameter fitting standard mounting holes
Velleman is a Swiss electronics brand specialising in kits, components, and accessories for electronics education, hobby robotics, and model building. The brand is widely distributed through Alltron and is known for offering well-documented, beginner-friendly products at accessible price points.
It is used in small robotics, RC models, conveyor mechanisms, and hobby electronics where a compact, low-voltage brushed motor is needed.
It operates at 3V DC with a rated current draw of 350mA, making it compatible with standard 3V battery packs or regulated power supplies.
The motor has a 2 mm shaft diameter, which fits standard small gearboxes, hubs, and mounting brackets used in hobby robotics and models.
No, the motor uses sensorless brushed commutation and does not require an external controller for basic rotation. A simple PWM driver can be added for speed control.
