Hi all,
I have a question. I need to figure out what sprockets to use to achieve a set speed on a project.
Heres the basic info,
2750 rpm motor
10" drive wheels
target speed, 7-10 mph.
I cant seem to figure out what the drive axle rpm needs to be to achieve those speeds...
If I want to figure speed, and know the drive- output RPM, and the wheel diameter how do I find mph speed?
I tried this (RPM*tire dia. /336)= mph
example- 85*6"/336 = 1.51 mph... (?)
it seems to work from what I can calculate, but is there a better way- or whats a way to double check?
Hello,
I am working on another project, and once again am a bit stumped on how to pick a dc motor for my application..
I am making a RC tank, 40" by 26", weighing about 140 lbs complete. It will use 2 motors, one to drive each track.. I have found various small gearmotors, but am not...
I need help with this. I need to find out how much power/ torque is required to move a rolling load up a 25 deg. incline. I need a drive motor for a electric cart. The cart weighs approx 1200lbs, and needs to travel only around 20 to 30 fpm. Anybody know a way to figure out how much torque...
Hi,
I need to find out how to select a 12 to 36 volt dc- gear reduction motor for a project. I need one capable of pulling a 1200 to 1500 lb pit cart (tool box) around at a very slow speed. I have no idea how to figure out how much torque/ power will be required for this. I am using a...
