Powerful, Discreet Vibration for Compact IoT and Wearables
The 3V 6x14mm Micro Vibration Hollow Cup Motor is a high-performance miniature motor designed to add haptic feedback and silent alerts to your smallest projects. Utilizing an efficient "hollow cup" design, this motor provides significant vibratory force without the bulk of traditional permanent magnet motors. At Robogears, we recommend this motor for wearable tech, compact robotics, and tactile feedback systems in handheld devices where space is at a premium.
High-Speed Haptic Performance
Don't be fooled by its tiny 6mm diameter. This motor is engineered for high-speed operation, reaching up to 46,500 RPM at 4.2V. This rapid rotation creates a crisp, strong vibration that is easily felt even through plastic enclosures. The coreless (hollow cup) architecture allows for incredibly fast start-and-stop response times, making it perfect for complex vibration patterns in notification-based projects or "vibrobot" hobby kits.
Built for Integration
Every detail of this motor is optimized for ease of use in DIY electronics. It comes pre-wired with 45mm black and white leads, allowing for direct soldering to a PCB or breadboard-friendly headers. The 0.8mm output shaft is fitted with a specialized eccentric weight that creates the vibratory effect. Its low power consumption makes it safe to drive using standard small-signal transistors or specialized haptic motor drivers from your microcontroller's output.
Key Highlights:
Ultra-Compact Footprint: Only 6mm wide, making it one of the smallest vibration solutions available.
High Sensitivity: Coreless design provides instant response for subtle haptic feedback.
Versatile Voltage Range: Operates reliably from a 3V battery or a single 4.2V Li-ion cell.
Low Noise: Provides physical feedback with minimal acoustic interference.
Lightweight: At just a few grams, it won't add noticeable weight to portable gadgets.
