Hello all.
This is my first post as I need some help.
I'm building a "barn Door" project which I'm sure you all know is a device to track the stars.
With the measurements I've built it to I need to drive the screw at 1 RPM.
I'm finding it very hard to get a 1 RPM DC motor either 230v or 12v.
Does anyone know of a source?
If I went the route of a gearbox of say 6000:1 what speed motor would I
need to attach to this gearbox to obtain 1 RPM.
Problem is I would like ample torque as well.
Hope you can help.
