    Pump Motor Sizing

    My company is looking to power a pushrod through the use of an eccentric disc. I have tested two motors and have also been trying to find an equation to somehow relate the amount of motor torque to the amount of force on the pushrod, but there seems to be huge gaps between the theoretical...
