Does anyone have any ideas for this? I need a device that is very accurate and precise. It needs to be able to locate itself at several different spots on an X and Y axis (speed not a factor). At these several locations it needs to travel on a Z axis between variable speeds of .2m/s and 2m/S (the speed at which it retracts is not a concern). I can only think of a robotic arm. The problem is the Z axis and the variable speeds. The device needs to be very accurate. I was thinking of mounting solenoids on a board in the locations I need them but I wouldn't be able to vary the speed and it may not be a consistent speed. Any ideas? I'm looking for something cheap and easy.
