hey,
im thinking about trying to build a pottery wheel(not for me).
approx(1/2 hp, 5 amp), permanent magnet DC motor is what drives them, and the speed is determined with a PWM if some kind.
anyone know of any good DC motor resources, or best place to buy DC motors, maybe some aprox prices.
To PWM the drive volt source, do you just use a PIC or something to switch the drive voltage source on and off?
thanks for you help
