Well guys if you pay attention to detail, I did ask for input figuring out my RPM's relative to SLIPPAGE. Im trying to determine if I will have slippage and if so how can I factor that into my analysis. Safety is absolutely priority in my field of work. I am plenty able to determine speed and...
The cart will be used indoors and in a clean environment. 3mph is more of a goal than a requirement. It cannot exceed 3mph and 1.8 to 2mph is really my goal. How many rpms does the motor need to turn or what is the output rpm of a speed reducer if I am using 8" wheels and want to factor in...
Thanks for all the replys. As far as acceleration goes, I know the customer wants max speed of 3mph, but the cart only has to move 15 ft both ways, 30ft long rail. There is no specification to how much acceleration is needed, I assume a slow steady startup and acceleration would be best(slower...
