DC Motor speed control - for a laser...

vendredi 13 mars 2015

This really is for my laser, I added that to let the mods know it really belongs here.



I have a 24v dc motor that drives the Z axis on my fiber. It runs way too fast for fine adjustments and only has up and down push button switches. So, I'd like to add a speed controller to allow me to slow it way down and get the height exactly what I want it to be. I thought I might be able to use a rheostat or a potentiometer but I'm not sure a) if they will work? and b)is there something better to use? and also what value pot would be needed? They seem to range from 5K ohm to 1M ohm - at our local Radio Shack anyway.



Anyone know what to do with this?



Thanks!

Gary
