Configuration Guide
Choose3V B45,6V B45,6V A35 or12V A35 to match the intended supply. A35 and B45 are different motor winding references, not encoder choices. The family performance tables include42:1,118:1 and603:1 reference columns, but this steel-plate listing offers only236:1,302:1 and1030:1. Other ratios are not additional selectable combinations.
Available combinations are236:1 and302:1 with3V B45 or6V B45, and1030:1 with6V A35 or12V A35. Only the actual in-stock combinations are offered.
Motor Performance
No-load, rated and stall values describe different operating conditions. All current and stall-torque figures are upper-limit references. Avoid continuous stall; torque figures do not establish a lifting payload or safety-brake rating. Torque columns retain independently rounded kgf·cm and N·m references.

Installation and Use
Match the selected winding to the actual DC supply before connecting power. Power-supply and controller photographs illustrate the package parts; check their labels, input/output voltage and connector polarity before use. The optional solder-free board and lead provide a convenient connection; they are not themselves a speed controller. A mini-controller or supply is included only in the corresponding package.
The steel-plate frame uses three support points rather than the compared brass-frame arrangement. Keep shaft loads within the selected operating point and support coupled mechanisms correctly. Worm gearing resists reverse movement, but holding depends on the ratio and load; use an independent holding device where required. Avoid overload, sustained stall and forcing the shaft.
Applications
Suitable for compact robot mechanisms, powered furniture mechanisms, smart-home actuators, small focusing systems and camera pan/tilt drives using a matched control and load arrangement.
What's Included
One selected steel-plate CHF-GW12T-N20VA motor and only the accessories named in its package. The motor-only selection does not include a controller,supply,connection board or bracket. Application mechanisms and a complete robot are not included.
FAQ
Are all choices steel-plate versions?
Yes. The selectable236:1,302:1 and1030:1 ratios in this product use the steel-plate frame.
Are6V A35 and6V B45 interchangeable?
They are different winding references with different performance and current values. Select the winding matching the intended operating point.
Is the solder-free board a controller?
No. It provides the illustrated connection-board and lead assembly. Select a controller package if speed control is required.
