OK, here's my dilemma:
I have a pump that requires 3600RPM, 24lb.ft. of torque (optimally) to run it. It was attached to a gasoline powered 16HP motor, and I need it to run off of an electric motor now.
Not so difficult, you say?
My only power supply is limited to 24VDC.
I am looking for someone who has expert knowledge on gearbox design/development. It is unknown as to which 24VDC motor will be required to achieve the above 3600RPM, 24lb.ft. Torque, because the gear ratio(s)/gearbox has to be addressed first. It is working the equation in reverse, I know, but it's the only way apparently.
Please think your answers through!
Thanks for any help.
