Hi guys n gals,

I work at a laboratory that does some interesting one off testing from time to time.

We have a client wanting to test a cable that is to wind around a drum, lifting a weight between 250-500 lbs 50 feet in the air, stop, drop to the ground (without damaging the weight apparatus) and return again 3000 cycles.

We will have a boom lift and pulley setup for the 50 feet of rise. What we need is a servomotor to wind the cable on the drum in a controlled manner. I have been given the go ahead to setup the apparatus, and frankly am finding myself a little underwater on how to proceed. So if anybody would like to get paid to setup the motor and controller for this test, please contact me within the next few days as I will be moving forward very soon. I know there are some smart heads on this forum, so this is where I thought to come first.

Contact me by PM or phone:

(951) 347-115seven

The laboratory is located in Southern California, but it is not necessary to be local.

thanks,
Dave
