Hello to all,
I have a situation where I need to increase the RPM of a gear by at least somewhere in the range of 10:1 at the minimum. I prefer as large as possible.
I have some room but not a lot. I can achieve about 6:1 by spur gear idler train, but thats not enough.
I know wormsets are used to REDUCE RPM by significant ratios, but are not used to increase because of large temperatures...
Is it possible to use a wormset to increase if the RPM if operation time is less than 2 minutes. (say every 30 minutes)??
Or what other options do I have? Please help me out.
Thanks,
Josh
