[DPRG] Motor Calculations

Does anyone have experience in selecting a motor size for a given speed
and inertia?
These will probably be AC servo motors.

I am trying to determine the size of 2 motors with the following
criteria.

1. Will need to rotate a weight of about 600 lbs. evenly distributed
with a  maximum distance from center of 2 feet.

2. The motor will need to rotate a weight of about 800 lbs. evenly
distributed with a maximum distance from center of 4 feet.

The motors should be strong enough to get up to a maximum speed of 2 rpm
within 1 second.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Rick
