The robot I am building has a rotatable wrist joint that I had intended to use a stepper motor to drive. This motor I obtained from a CD player but when I tried, it was not up to the job. The hand weighs about five Kilo with a 8mm drive shaft running in ball races.As it only has to turn a quarter and back again a motor and gearbox seems a bit of an overkill.
As you can guess I am new to this so am seeking advice .I have some powerful 90 volt solenoids or do you think I should try a more powerful stepper motor or perhaps a servo.
Cheers Mike
