Concentricity is and axial measurment, so a cylinder would have to be measured then compared to to the other cylinders to...

    A little help here. We have an old print for a shaft that reads "Diameters to be concentric within .001 TIR" Now these diameters are differnet sizes ranging from 11" to 19.5" over a shaft that is 66.5" long. Can anyone offer a defintion and an inspection method. We are having a dispute on how...

    Help with gear size and ratio

    It has been a long time. I am not worried about the load calculations on the shafts and bearings yet. I am worried about the size of the gears. I just can't remember how to how determine the size of the gears. I came here for help and some advice. Can some one help me?

    Help with gear size and ratio

    I have looked at these gear boxes, and that is not what I am looking for. I would like to figure out the gear sizes, so I can make them myself. I know there are easier solutions, but I need a winter project. Thanks for the links lots of good information.

    Help with gear size and ratio

    I have a home project that I need some help with. Is there away to figure out the gear size for something like this? gear input: 2.29:1; gearbox ratio: 115:1Pulls 32 FPM and 1800 lbs. single load; I am not sure home figure out the size and number of gears. I would like to try to run this from...
