Re: Gear Ratios

Well, I plan on using four small cims. I plan on a live shaft, two stage reduction. I'm not sure how fast i need it to go, but no slower then 7.5 fps and no faster then 12 fps. I've made about 4 designs so far for a crab drive and when i finally did the math, it would go like 4.5 fps. So now I'm just trying to find the best ratio.
