A driving device was designed and fabricated using large integration for activated wire counting. The salient points of this setup are presented with reference to reactor flux mapping. They are (a) easy positioning, (b) adjustable speed of motor rotation by varying time sequence, (c) reversible motor rotation, and (d) on-line operation of several units. The device can be used for routine flux mapping and reactor experiments.
