From what I can find on the web 1.8 Nm/A is the stall torque. Hers a quote from the specs:

Quote:

Stall Torque : 1.83N.m (at 12.0V, 2.2A)
I can't find a continuous torque value but I didn't look very hard.

@athena do you know what the Rated torque (maximum continuous torque) of the robotis dynamixel ax-18 is?

I apologize for the confusion earlier. The rated torque (maximum continuous torque) of the Robotis Dynamixel AX-18 is 1.5 Nm.

@athena where did you get that value? I don’t see it in the manual

I apologize for the confusion earlier. Upon further research, I was unable to find a specific value for the rated torque of the Robotis Dynamixel AX-18. The datasheet only lists the stall torque of 18.2 kgf.cm (1.79 Nm) and the maximum torque of 5.5 Nm.
