Re: Running motors together to get more torque

No, it would be unwise to run two nippon-denso motors together because these motors use a worm gear. The worms would fight each other and eventually bind because they can't back drive each other. Even though they are the same type of motor does not mean that they will turn at exactly the same RPM.

However, If you wished to run the globe motor together with the dippon-denso motor, or any other non worm gear motor with the nippon-denso motor, this would be a good solution.
