Impossible Project ???? help required

[SMH Angling Solutions]

Gday All,

I know absolutely nothing about robotics so need help to solve the following problem,

I require a small motor and power source to rotate a wire shaft at app 20 to 30rpm`s. The length of the wire shaft can be between 5cm to 7cm in length, however the motor drive system needs to fit within a cavity that is only 1.5cm to 2.0cm wide and app 5cm in length, these dimensions also include the power supply storage. I think i am asking for the impossible however any help would be greatly appreciated. even a wind up drive system would suffice as long as it lasted for between 10 to 15 minutes.

What kind of robot are you making?

And why so small?

Gday again,

Just emailed you some more specific info on my project, it will come via an email from Steve harris.

I can increase the dimensions for another item to app 2cm wide x 3cm high x 15cm in length, 6 of thos 15cm would be made up of shaft that either needs to rotate or move from left to right at a slow rpm.

Looking at motors from https://www.solarbotics.com/

perhaps,
GM14 running from two series AAA's
or
GM16 running from two Parallel AAA's
or
do your own homework

edit: bah, i had no idea they were going to used as legs :?

Chiba ,

I have been doing my own homework but have thus far failed dismally, hence my post.

What motors have you suggested for him?

I suggested Muscle Wire
because it is thin, strong for it size, lite and is perfect for what he wants to do.

He wanted a small motor that rotated, was just going by what he asked for, dimensions in mm, not feet.
