Re: Elevator Design Help
Wire rope? Does it wrap around the worm, or is it simply attached to a pulley?
If it's the latter, reducing the diameter of the pulley should act as a way to reduce weight and speed. We are using a 1.08"-ish pitch diameter timing belt pulley for ours.
IMO ditch the worm gear entirely and just make it a two-stage versaplanetary. We were running fine on a 28:1 reduction on an RS-775 (at least for a few totes) so a cim with a two-stage versaplanetary could suit you well.
Best of luck!

Don't let the teams here be so much of an intimidation to you, but instead, an inspiration. They all had to start from the beginning, too. - Amanda Morrison [more]
