Hi all
As part of an automated project, I am looking for a motorized solution to make an arm do 180° back and forth, i.e. starting position 0° - ending position 180° then 180°-0° and this in a sequential way and with a delay of 1 minute at each position.
I have little space and no electrical box. I had thought of a windshield wiper motor but this one does a 0°/180°/0° cycle without a stop on the 180° position...
Does anyone have an idea??
Thank you in advance for your help and have a great day.
Hello
I don't really see the link between the question and SketchUp but hey, since we're not beasts, here's a lead.
It is possible to use an Arduino to drive a servo. Space-saving (especially with a "mini" or "nano"), very inexpensive, and programmable. Available in 3.3V or 5V, clocked at 8MHz or 16MHz. Depending on the use, 8MHz is sufficient and reduces consumption. Not to spoil anything, the community is very large, and you will have no trouble finding tutorials, etc. Well documented.
Animatics motorization all integrated in a nema format
It can be programmed, it's very compact and it's with a high torque after that, it's about 700€
