Hi Guys I'm new to the forum (as many often are when wanting something and I'm no different).
I am a recently retired toolmaker who has set up a workshop in my garage. I know little or nothing about instrumentation electronics / robotics so please be gentle.
I need to make a 12 station 5mm thick aluminium disc of 250 mm diameter index automatically and quickly to a point then stop and dwell for a variable interval of between 1 and 30 seconds to locate components under a small gas flame.
What can I buy or make to achieve this? I am using a low voltage, 30 RPM motor geared through a Tamiya gearbox to drive the disc.
Looking forward to your help and advice
Kind regards David
