Hi I am going to build my own wending-machine and I have been looking at different DC motors all night long but Im not getting anywhere.

My build need just one motor but it must be fairly strong. How strong exaxtly I dont know I will just have to guess. I will controll the machine with a rasberry Pi. In thinking of using this motor:

https://www.amazon.se/5840-31zy-Kraftfull-vridmoment-hastighet-product/dp/B0BJ7ZKN8J/ref=mp_s_a_1_31?keywords=dc%2Bmotor%2Bworm%2Bgear&qid=1666692772&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIyLjAzIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sr=8-31&th=1&psc=1

Would this be a good option? I dont need a motor with an encoder as my vending machine does not have to be very precise. What would be a good driver for this motor? I need the Machine to be turned on 24/7, so It would be good if the driver has a stand by mode where it draws close to zero power when the motor is not activated.

thanks!
