12v dc motor and charger help
(OP)
Hi
this is my first time on this forum but I am at the start of a project which is sort of outside my field, so here goes. What I need is a company which will help me in the design of a machine which has a 12v dc motor powered by a battery similar to what a car would have and of course have a builtin charger. I would like the company to supply the parts as well give good advice.

where are you locatd? sometimes folks need to know to see if you are within their service area.
Give a tad more info about what you want and those of us who might be able to provide such a thing will respond.5-6 at a time after prototype; ok, how often? 5-6 every 2 days? 5-6 every week? 5-6 every year?
what size? what are your rating needs? 1 #-ft? 100 #-ft? 1hp? 100hp? 1rpm? 1000rpm?
size limits? 1: dia max? 100" dia max?
length limits? 1"? 10"?
charger source voltage? 120vac? 220v? 460 3ph? 60hz? 50hz?
any agency certifications required? UL? UR? CE? CSA? MSH?
application? you r agriculture so will it be used on a tractor? bus? in a mine?
any environmental requirements must it work to -40 degrees F? 120 degrees F?
How long can the charge take? 1 hour? 10 hours?
HOw long does it have to run at what load on battery before recharge allowed?

We are thinking of making a product which is similar to an AG maxi for bedding sawdust etc. The machine needs to be around the same size and also battery powered. But that's where the similarities end, the AG has a conveyor to dispense the sawdust I was thinking of a fan or impeller to blow the dust out and would think 1000rpm would do that. We are based in Ireland. I'm not sure about the numbers at this stage but I know some AG agents sell 50-60 per year. The machine would run for 20min periods 3 times over 24hrs and I can't see the enviroment being a problem. We are 220v-240v here for the charger.

So you probably want someone in UK area make it for you. For a start, give my friend Jon Howard at www.heason.com in UK a call as I believe his company can make this thing for you.
Good Luck.

My confusion is that you need a DC motor to run off of batteries, and have a built in charger. I'm assuming you are going to want a charger that runs off of 120VAC? And if that is the case, why not just use a power supply that converts the 120VAC to 12VDC directly (We have an electric version that does exactly this using the 1/9 HP motor).
