Gear Ratio Advanced: Velocity, Torque & Efficiency

This post builds on Gear Ratio Basics and explains how gear ratios affect speed (velocity), torque, and efficiency. Understanding these concepts helps you design gear systems that work the way you need them to. 🔄 Gear Ratio and Velocity The gear ratio controls how fast the output gear turns compared to the input gear. The formula for calculating this is shown below: \[\text{Gear Ratio} =…
