Pickup Winder V2

This is a rough video of the new pickup winder I am building. My last winder was clumsy to say the least. This one will be much better. In this video the winder is not quite complete. Most of the electronics are not hard wired yet and are temporarily installed. The winder features a Dc motor with a pulse modulation speed control, a Veeder Root preset counter that kills motor power at a predetermined count. The counter gets its count pulse from a Honeywell Bi polar Hall Effect sensor. The most important feature of this winder is an automatic transversal. These features make the winder almost completely automatic. The transversal runs via a linear stepper motor controlled by an AVR microcontroller and an Easydriver board. Special thanks go to Matt for his help with the transversal. I couldn't have done it without him!

what is the motor you are using for the spinning the pickup?

[RedeemerbassesScott]

It's a 24volt DC motor that originally ran a small fan.

Nice work. IS that some sort of servo motor on the traverse?

[RedeemerbassesScott]

Its a linear stepper motor, I found it on ebay for cheap.

[RedeemerbassesScott]

Yep that actually your neck single coil on the spindle!
