[DIYbio] Re: Building semicontinuous minicentrifuge with HD motor.

Have you considered using DC brushless motors used on R/C airplanes?  That's what I would look into.  These motors were originally hard drive motors rewired by hand with additional windings.   They often are bundled with speed controllers.  They will also have great starting torque which could be your #1 design problem for a DIY centrifuge.

Hi,

I'm working on building a circuit (with MOSFET) and a software (with
Arduino) to control HD motors to be used in a DIY "semicontinuous"
minicentrifuge.

Has anyone worked with these motor? (spindle motor, bldc motor, used in
Hard Disks)

I would like to exchange information with someone with experience in
controlling these motors.

Thanks,
Markos
