Hi,
A part of my project involves unlocking a door upon a receiving a certain command. The project is part of my undergrad curriculum. One of the ways to demo a door lock is to use a linear actuator. I worked on a linear actuator project last year and it turned out to be an arduous task; built a linear actuator using a stepper motor.
What is the easiest and best possible way to build a linear actuator using a DC motor? How do I attach a bolt and nut onto the shaft of the motor?
Any new ideas for a door lock demo or linear actuator are also welcome.
Thank You
