Epicyclic gears 1

[SErgini0]

Hello,
I've been looking everywhere for a folmula that gives the ratio of a epicyclic gear using the number of teeth. Can anyone help?

There is a "gear and pulley engineering" Forum.
You may have more response from that Forum.

Cheers

Machinery handbook; Gieck's Engineering formulas and any gear design books have the formulas.
