For slider crank motion, a motor capable of controlled rotation between 200-400 RPM is recommended. The required force and work done by the slider crank depend on the specific application and load conditions. The motor's speed directly influences the efficiency and effectiveness of the slider's movement. A small magnet attached to the end of the slider can enhance functionality, possibly for sensing or actuation purposes. Selecting the right motor is crucial for optimal performance in slider crank applications.

which motor is reasonable for slider crank motion , where the motion of slider should be control with motor speed.

Thank you

There are too many possibilities. Almost any small electric motor will do the job. How you construct the slider crank, and mount the motor, will depend on your choice.

To regulate the speed of a small DC motor, you should regulate the supply voltage.

To regulate the torque of a small DC motor, you should regulate the current, or use a series resistor.
 

Thread 'Impractical 3D gears model for robotics'

https://newatlas.com/technology/abenics-versatile-active-ball-joint-gear/ They say this could be used as a shoulder joint for robots. Mind boggling! I'm amazed this has been done in real life. The model they show seems impractical to me. The ball spins in place but doesn't connect to anything. I guess what they would do would be attach a shaft to that ball, then restrict the motion so the drive gears don't contact the shaft. The ball would have two limited degrees of freedom then a...
