## Size a joint

- [Motor torque calculator](/tools/motor-torque-calculator?solve=power&t=13&n=74): **101 W** of shaft power at its rated 13 N·m and 74 rpm.
- [Robot arm torque calculator](/tools/robot-arm-torque-calculator?L=0.4,0.35,0.12&m=1.2,0.8,0.3&a=0.46,0.5,0&p=2): **31.8 N·m** at the shoulder with its 460 g at the elbow of a 2 kg-payload arm.

## Use cases

- robot arm
- quadruped leg
- exoskeleton

## Notes

LKMTech planetary joint motor with built-in driver and dual encoders (18-bit motor, 14-bit reducer). Reseller figures: rated/peak 13/25 N.m at 36:1, ~74 rpm, 24 V. Unverified: LKTECH's official site (lkmotor.cn MG planetary series) lists no MG5010E-i36 model, only the MG5010E-i10v3, and its MG40-50 manual has no spec table; no manufacturer weight, torque or speed figure was found. Some older i36 listings quote 4 N.m. Price $240 is the AiFitLab price for the CAN or RS-485 version, checked Oct 2026. Weight 460 g is from the AiFitLab spec table ('Motor Weight'), which also lists \<=12 arcmin backlash and recommends the DG40 driver; still a reseller figure, not LKTECH's.
