Need help with a motor with forward/reverse
Need help with a motor with forward/reverse
(OP)
Hello. I am a civil engineer so I am not too familiar with mechanical engineering topics. I am an need of a motor that has both forward and reverse speeds. I will be using this for lifting a computer monitor up. The monitor probably weighs no more than 20 lbs, but I will probably have a counterweight attached to it. What I am looking for is the amount of HP needed and maybe some websites that offer the motor I am looking for. I don't think this would be a very large motor so I would hope to spend under $50 for it. Also, if this application seems like it wouldn't work, please offer any suggestions. Thanks for your help!!!

Go to "grainger.com" search motors => specialty => gear drive.

I'm struggling with Graingers G A R B A G E search engine right now. Man! Don't these people ever try their own lousy software?
