Re: Stepper motor questions
@Richard: This isn't an invention which we plan on applying for a patent with, just a solution to a problem which was assigned to us as a school project. Pumps like this have existed for much longer, such as the syringe pumps commonly used for the gradual injection of small amounts of fluid.
@gdeaver: We are looking to move anywhere between 1 and 1000 ml, with a precision of +-2 ml, We were going to use two 500 ml syringes, and so pressure will be very low. our stepper motor has a far higher torque than we need, we are using it because we got a deal on it.
Basically all I need is what I can do to get this motor turning under control, and I can take it from there.
