DS3230 30kg Metal Gear Digital Servo Motor

DS3230 30kg Metal Gear Digital Servo Motor

The DS3230 is a high-torque metal gear digital servo motor engineered for robotics, RC models, and industrial automation where power and precision matter. With robust metal gearing, a digital control system, and a wide operating voltage range, the DS3230 delivers reliable performance for steering, lifting, and positioning tasks under heavy load.

Key Highlights

• High Torque: Up to 30kg·cm at 7.4V (27kg·cm at 6.0V) for demanding applications.
• Metal Gear Train: Hardened metal gears provide superior durability and long life under stress.
• Digital Precision: Stable angle control and faster response than analog servos.
• Wide Voltage Range: Operates across 4.8-7.4V for compatibility with common battery packs and controllers.
• Dual Ball Bearings: Smooth rotation and reduced wear for longer service life.
• PWM Compatible: Works with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, RC receivers, and standard PWM controllers.
• Heat-Resistant Design: Maintains stable performance during continuous operation.

Compatibility and Control

The DS3230 is designed for easy integration with common microcontrollers and RC systems. Use standard PWM libraries and drivers for precise control:

• Arduino: Servo library and PWM output pins
• Raspberry Pi: PWM through GPIO, dedicated HATs, or PWM drivers
• RC Systems: Direct connection to receivers that provide PWM signal

Recommended Applications

• Robotic arms and grippers requiring strong holding force
• RC cars and trucks for steering or throttle control
• RC boats and watercraft where reliable torque is needed
• Automation projects, hobby robotics, and AI robotics platforms
• Crawlers, winches, and lifting mechanisms

Installation Tips and Best Practices

• Use a suitable power supply capable of delivering peak current at 6.0-7.4V to avoid voltage sag.
• Add a capacitor or BEC on the power line for noise suppression during high-load events.
• Secure the servo with proper mounting hardware and avoid excessive side loads on the output spline.
• When pairing with microcontrollers, ensure correct PWM frequency and calibration for accurate end stops.

What is Included
