Vector Module Chain Tensioning

Our team is attempting to design a working vector module during the offseason but we have encountered problems with chain tensioning between the two axels(the live axel and dead axel). We were thinking that the distance between the two would be too small for chain tensioners and instead accurate calculations would have to be used. How exactly would you find the precise distance between the axels so that the chain is perfectly taut?

If you want a better description of what we were planning don't hesitate to ask.
