Re: Urgent! How many motors can we use?
The CIM motor does NOT run at the same speed as the Drill motors, with or without their transmissions. Please refer to any of Paul Cipioli's posts for the comparision. Roughly, the Drill motors run at 450 RPM and 1000 RPM with the transmission and 20000 without. The CIM motor run at 5500 RPM. Those are not close enough to match without some gearing.
