What is the difference between the rated torque and the blocking torque of a wheel motor?

The rated torque and the blocking torque of a wheel motor are two different concepts.
The rated torque is the maximum output torque at the design operating point at which the motor can operate continuously without damage. It is usually expressed as Nm.
The blocking torque is the maximum torque that can be achieved when the motor is not rotating at a given supply voltage, which is a critical point at which the motor reaches its maximum output torque. It is usually expressed as Ncm.

In other words, the rated torque is the maximum torque that the motor can output under normal operation, while the blocking torque is the maximum torque that the motor can withstand when it is not rotating. In practical applications, the blocking torque is usually used to determine whether the motor can withstand transient load shocks, while the rated torque is used to determine the actual output power of the motor.
