Interpreting motor data
Now that I have the CIM motor data, I was wondering if somebody could help me interpret it. For example let's say that I want to see how much RPMs it will have if X torque is applied. So I look at the torque first to see where x is found, then go up to find RPMs (since RPM is dependant upon torque). Ok that seems like it is right.
But now lets say I wanna find what the max torque of a gearbox will be. For simplicity lets say the ration is 10:1. So that means the torque is multiplied by 10 on the output. So if I have a (once again for simplicity) a 1000 ounce load, I would work backwards and say that 1000 / 10 = 100. This means I look to see where 100 oz/in lays on the x axis then go up to find the RPMs at that load(before the gearbox)? then I divide RPMs by 10 to find the RPMs coming out of the gearbox?
I have never really been formally taught this skill, so any help is appreciated.
