Thank you very much Terry I have purchased the AGMA 6123-B06 standard and started studying it!
Thanks also to Carburized for your input, i will be contacting you directly via your webite.
Thanks Williedawg for pointing me in the right direction.
The calculation works like this:
Ring gear (fixed) : 63T
Ring gear output: 66T
Sun gear: 6T
Planet gear: 29T
So the formula is (1+R/S) * (R(fixed)/(R(fixed)-R(output))
In this case: 1+(63/6) * 66/3
The ratio is 253:1
I have a couple...
I am in the process of developing a light duty winch with very high reduction (around 250:1) in the lighest and most compact fashion. I have been looking at some cheap electrical winches that are usiong a so-called Differential planetary gearbox in which:
1) The planet carrier is located halfway...
