somehow i dont believe what i read. isnt op talking about a bridgeport? that probably is a 3000 pounds mill. my 4000 pounds mill has a 1.5 kw motor to power the feeds. a windshield whiper motor? good for a laugh. no? (what power do these have btw, 150 w, i would guess?)
I think your over thinking things wiper motor or window riser motors have more than enough power and can take a lot more than twelve volt for short periods of time for rapid feed. When the large satellite dishes where the craze I had a GM window riser motor move my dish for different satellite's it was tracked by my home computer worked great for years. Here is a affordable PWM board I have used a lot of these they work great.
