I have a 38 volt dc permanent mag. 900 RPM motor. I want to use it for a faceting machine which is for cutting gemstones. Can anybody give me a design to follow to be able to run off of household ac power and control the speed?

Hi joe,

Welcome to our forum,

We need to have more info on the motor, A, W and load to know what we are dealing with.
And maybe your budget too!  ;D

Thanks for responding to my post. The only other thing on the motors tag is peak current rating:12 amps max. As far as the budget goes, I've don't have any idea what electrical components cost so I dont have any set amount in mind. At this point any suggestions would be great!

Hi Joe,

Sorry for the delay, I haven’t been able to log in for a few days!
You need a PWM Pulse Width Modulation control circuit to do this. I don’t know how much you’re into electronics? ;)

Dear,
There is so many choice for you to use.
1.If you are design a good products,you can choose the MCU to control the PWM CHIP to control the Motor
2.you can use a Mcu with a PWM output to control the MOS transistor to control the motor
3.If you just to design a easy tool for yourself ,you can use the adjustable resistance ,and the NE555,to output the different pulse width to control the MOS and then can adjust the DC motor.

================================
1.Extract the code for you from programed Mcu for legal use
2.Specilized in the Microwave sensor,automatic door sensor,infrared sensor
3.OEM PCB and design for you in China
