Hey folks - long time lurker on the forum and need some advice.
I’ve some exotic linear motors and a pile of heavy duty extruded aluminium. What to do with them!?
I was going to build a new machine but life gets in the way so time for a clear out. Seems too good to weigh in at the scrappy though.
It was a very high end sampling machine in it’s day. Cost about £500,000 10 years ago.
The linear motors are things of beauty - but they’re a bit beyond me. One is rail is 1500mm other is 1200mm.
The controllers have some literature available but way over my head!
I’ve been tripping over them for 2 years now so need to do something about it.
So what to do - try and get it all working**, weigh it all in, or split for sale?
Anyone have experience with linear motors?
** even if I could figure it out I’ve no idea of torque values or anything else about the motors. It will be super accurate when up and running though - and I bet it crazy fast and fun to play with :o)
