For the stepper I could probably use a function generator and a counter IC using just 4 outputs.
I have a PIC ICEBREAKER board that has a stepper motor driver, so I could use that too.

RE:  PIC ICEBREAKER

Could you provide a link to the vendor, please?   

What language are you using?



Cheers,

Sorry to put a down side to really great drawings but how are you counteracting vibrations with that set up?

Magnets will 'try' to go the easiest path in our normal 3 dimensional space.

That brings up another thought about the parameters on the OC-MPMM replication, what about the possible z-axis movement of the stator magnets or the major drive wheel?

Wishing everyone the best, and really sorry to bring up yet more factors, however my 'feeling' is that OU is a question of vibration tuning.
