I have been checking out DC motors this week to replace the slow Stepper we used for spinning the bobbin up.
At last I think I have found one that will do the job.
Using a PWN Motor controllers it allows for variable speed, reversing and braking.
Now waiting for the encoder to arrive to give me more control and will implement the firmware/software.
Need to add some dampners to the motor mounts, not that I expect people to want to wind at top speed !.
Please feel free to check out http://www.cncdudez.co.uk for more information.
cool! everything on the desk moves slightly if you jump between 0:20 and 1:16 :D
