High efficiency power transmission
High efficiency power transmission
(OP)
What would be the most efficient way to get a 3:1 reduction on motor drive running over 3kw at approx. 1000 rpm. ? Currently using Gates "Polychain".
Thanks.
Thanks.

I am guessing the Polychain is around 96%. Why do you need even better?

Would the sprocket diameters make much difference? Intuitively, the larger the diameter, the less tension differential the belt would require, BUT at the same time the higher linear velocity?
I think it would be splitting hairs, but just curious.
