I am working on a project at home where i would like to build an elbow exoskeleton (like the picture i atteched). The load on the motor would be a forearm, the aluminium structure on the forearm and little or no load in the hand. So the torque on the motor would be max 20 Nm. The motor should have to be able to rotate at the speed it could follow the used arm (and a bit faster). The rotation can be just 180°, because the motor just has to follow the movement of the forearm. The complete structure should have to be portable, so i wouldn't like to power the motor from huge power sources. Also it would be better if i wouldn't have to pay a lot for it. If required i would measure the rotation with a potentiometer.
So what kind of motor would you recommend for this project?
