So instead of 137:1 it would need to be more than 137 right?

So logically speaking motor wouldn't be enough right? Since as I mentioned the 70 mm is the shaft coming out the motor which turns the sprocket that is 234 mm, the 234 mm sprocket turns another 234 mm sprocket which is connected to the 702 mm you mentioned by a shaft (as shown in my drawing), so...

I have shows how the system goes from the motor, to a sprocket moving another sprocket with the same amount of teeth, which moves that bigger sprocket. I just want to know if the motor I have specified is enough for my use, if not I will need a bigger motor obviously. The reason for my post is...

Thank you so much! I will look into this as soon as possible and try to keep you guys updated with any progress, Thank you to everyone who has contributed and helped out it really means a lot and I hope to come back with more questions or even participate in discussion myself

Sorry I forgot to mention that I got the 70 mm from the shaft coming out the motor, the one you have shown is the sprocket that moves the conveyor belt, I did this because @jrmichler mentioned to measure the rpm coming OUT the motor

Alright so I found the rpm to be 45.5 by doing the following (D/19108)*rpm=conveyor speed With D being 70 mm and the conveyor speed i'm looking for is a max of 0.166667 (or 10 meters per minute) I just have a question, does that mean that the rpm of the motor (where I attached the...

I have attached the specifications of the motor below, that is what I have been provided with

Thank you so much for this! I have already decided that the panel must be 0.12 m/sec (converted from 7 m/min), When you say the rpm of the shaft do you mean the one produced from the motor? Since if that is the case I have already shown that the motor outputs a speed of 10.5 to 11 rpm, The...

Thank you for your reply! To answer your last two question; 1) I am not sure about the panel weight but I will do my best to get that, but for now I would like to say there is no panel as I want to see if the motor I have specified is enough to move the chain first 2) the conveyor is level...

Thank you so much I will definitely look into this as I didn't think about this part! But how would I be able to apply this to my problem after I find the motor constant?

That is what was written on the specifications of the motor, I just provided it in case it would mean some help

I know this might sound dumb but if I know the weight of the chain would I just need to calculate F=ma to find the force of resistance or is there another way to do that?

I apologize for not specifying, I want the machine to be able to move at approximately 7 meters per minute, so it will be conveying a panel, which I am not sure of the weight but I can try to get it for you across but for now lets say we neglect it, at 7 meters per minute. Hope that helps!

Hi everyone! I am in a bit of a halt right now as I don't really know where to begin with this problem, There is a chain and sprocket machine that I have the details of the motor of and majority of the dimensions of but I don't know how to start, I tried to look at some of the posts on here...
