Sample Acceptance Plan
Turn Product Selection Into Pass/Fail Checks
Before a motor family becomes a sample order, sales engineering converts the RFQ into acceptance checks for engineering, procurement, and quality. These checks keep CAD/STEP release, prototype approval, and repeat production tied to the same specification baseline.
| Workstream | Buyer Question | Evidence to Prepare | Pass Signal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Peak vs continuous torque | Is the application asking for repeatable torque or short overload survival? | Continuous torque, peak torque, stall torque, target RPM, duty cycle, and thermal limit. | The selected frame passes continuous load without relying on peak torque as the normal operating point. |
| Shaft and shock load | Will the output shaft, carrier, and gear teeth survive jams or impact events? | Coupling drawing, radial and axial loads, lever arm, shock or jam frequency, and end-stop behavior. | Shaft support and gear material are approved against the worst-case mechanical load. |
| Current limit and heat | Can the controller protect the motor and gearbox during overloads? | Driver current limit, stall detection, thermal path, winding target, and ambient temperature range. | Overload protection prevents repeated thermal overrun or tooth overload during the defined duty. |
| Life-cycle validation | Does the sample survive the real high-load cycle, not only a bench torque check? | Cycle count, load profile, temperature range, inspection method, and allowed torque or noise drift. | Gear wear, current drift, and output torque remain acceptable after the buyer duty cycle. |

Selection-Ready Product Data
Build the Ratio Table Before Sample Approval
Public diameter pages are only the starting point. For RFQ review, sales engineering confirms rated voltage, no-load RPM, rated-load RPM, continuous output torque, stall torque, current, efficiency, and gear ratio against your mechanism before releasing drawings or sample pricing.
| Performance Field | Buyer Input | How It Shapes the Quote |
|---|---|---|
| Rated voltage and current limit | 3V, 6V, 12V, 24V, or buyer-defined driver limit | Selects the winding, thermal margin, stall-current boundary, and battery or adapter fit. |
| No-load speed and loaded output speed | Motor RPM, target output RPM, and acceptable speed tolerance | Narrows the gear ratio and keeps the prototype inside the required actuation time. |
| Continuous output torque and stall torque | Working torque, peak load, jam condition, and stall duration | Checks gear material, shaft support, carrier strength, and safety margin before sampling. |
| Gear ratio and efficiency target | Known ratio, output RPM target, or torque-speed curve from the mechanism | Builds the ratio table used to compare speed, torque, current, efficiency, and heat rise. |
| Duty cycle and life target | On/off sequence, cycles per day, lifetime cycles, ambient temperature | Defines grease, gear stack, winding temperature, brush life, and sample validation scope. |
| Noise and backlash limit | dB limit, measurement distance, arcmin or degree target, load fixture | Separates POM, hybrid, metal, and low-backlash options before the CAD exchange. |

Gear Material Review
Confirm POM, Hybrid, or Metal Stages Before Prototype Approval
Use the material guide to align noise, torque density, stall load, wear, grease, and backlash expectations before the sample BOM is frozen.
CAD / STEP Request
Request Outline Drawings Before You Freeze the Mechanical Design
Share the mating envelope and target duty data so sales engineering can confirm whether an existing outline drawing, STEP/IGES file, or custom shaft and flange proposal is suitable for your project.
1
Installation envelope, mounting pattern, shaft interface, and cable exit.
2
Voltage, loaded speed, torque, gear ratio, duty cycle, noise, and backlash limits.
3
Preferred CAD format, drawing revision, prototype quantity, destination, and compliance notes.
Fields engineering checks before sharing a model
- Product fit
- Diameter, gearbox length, motor family, shaft style, flange pattern, and cable or connector exit.
- Performance target
- Voltage, loaded speed, continuous torque, peak or stall torque, ratio, duty cycle, life, noise, and backlash.
- Mechanical interface
- Mating drawing revision, installation clearance, radial or axial load, tolerance priority, and assembly sequence.
- Release package
- 2D outline, STEP/IGES envelope, custom shaft/flange review, datasheet values, and quality evidence scope.
Useful before CAD freeze
CAD files are shared by project fit and revision status. For custom shafts, flanges, cable routing, or gearbox interfaces, attach the mating drawing so the first CAD exchange uses the correct mechanical boundary.
RFQ Checklist
- Required stall torque
- Shock load conditions
- Output shaft mounting method
- Continuous torque and allowed temperature rise
- Jam/end-stop frequency and controller current limit
- Radial and axial load on the output shaft
Risk Controls
- Gear tooth shearing: Powder metallurgy or CNC-hobbed steel gear routes are selected by frame size, load, and target tooth strength.
- Thermal overrun during long duty cycles: We size the motor, winding, ratio, and current limit against continuous torque, not peak torque alone.
- Shaft or carrier failure from off-axis loading: Output geometry, bearing stack, and mounting method are checked against radial and axial loads.
- Peak torque is mistaken for usable continuous torque: Selection compares load duration, thermal rise, gear wear, current limit, and post-stall recovery instead of quoting stall torque alone.

Buyer FAQ
Are all stages made of metal?
All-metal gear trains can be specified when the duty cycle, shock load, and noise trade-offs justify them.
Should we specify stall torque or continuous torque?
Specify both. Stall torque protects against jams, while continuous torque determines heat, efficiency, and long-term gear wear.
Can high torque motors still meet a noise limit?
They can be optimized, but full-metal high-torque gear trains are usually louder than hybrid low-noise designs.
What overload data should we provide?
Provide normal load, peak load, stall torque, allowed stall time, jam frequency, shaft lever arm, current limit, and whether the controller can cut or reverse power.
