What is the Speed Ratio of Pulleys?
1 Answers
The calculation formula for pulley speed: Assuming the diameter and speed of the motor pulley (driving pulley) are d1 and n1, and the diameter and speed of the driven pulley are d2 and n2, the mechanical transmission principle yields the pulley speed calculation formula: d2/d1 = n1/n2 = i; that is, d2 = d1 × (n1/n2). Below are related introductions: Definition: Pulleys belong to the category of hub-like components, generally relatively large in size, and are primarily manufactured through casting or forging in terms of production processes. Larger-sized designs typically employ casting methods, with materials usually being cast iron (which has good casting properties), and rarely cast steel (as steel has poor casting properties). Representation: It is denoted by the symbol "n"; its international standard unit is r/s (revolutions per second) or r/min (revolutions per minute), and it is also represented as RPM (revolutions per minute, mainly used in Japan and Europe). When the unit is r/s, the value is equal to the frequency, i.e., n = f = 1/T, where T is the period of circular motion.
