Powering an FRC-like system from a wall outlet
We're building a simple linear motion mechanism that we'd like to be able to plug into a wall to use. I don't have much experience with electric systems, so I was wondering what might be a good way to go about that. The requirements we have are listed below:
1) Powering a mini-CIM with amperage needs consistent with moving a load of about 20 lbs along a horizontal track at ~20in/sec (25:1 Versaplanetary reduction) with little friction.
2) Using a Spark motor controller
3) Needs to plug into a standard American wall outlet
Thanks!
