THe MG995 may not be sufficient.Īlso, as the stall current of one servo is 1200 mA you probably need a bigger power supply, or rather one that is capable of supplying more current.Įven with no load, six servos, when operating, will consume (6 x 0.17 =) 1.02 A, so again you will need a bigger supply.
Operating speed: 0.20 sec/60° (4.8 V) 0.16 sec/60° (6.0 V)įrom the stall torque at 6 V it can lift a maximum of 11 kg at 1 cm from the axis of the servo, so your load of 10 kg would be on the limit.Considering 1.2 A stall current and all 6 servo are same then you should supply 1.2×6 = 7.2 A for working without any problem.įrom the TowerPro website from the MG995: If you have higher power supply system in which you can control the voltage and ampere both then you can go for single supply also. High ampere drawn by one servo does not affect the other of power supply is separated. It will help in stabilizing your working and power.
Small servo motor arduino driver#
You should design the driver circuit or board for power supply and common both ground of the Arduino board and driver circuit.Īnd it is recommended that you should use multiple power supply and divide the power supply to the group of servos.
You should not power servo directly form the Arduino. Your setup will work with ideal no load condition but not on loaded condition. You are using metalgear servo with power supply of just 1 A.Īs per the specification provided by greenonline (in previous answer), the servo needs 1.2 A at stall condition.
Firstly consider the servo torque limitations, if loading increase from specified limit the it start stalling and even can gear get fail and burn servo itself, possibly.Īnd another concern is with power supply.
