My early builds are 2 output, I ''know'' I should be making 3 output just to make them more versatile. These aren't recommendations either, just records.  I can already see that my first designs were not well optimised and I've only just begun.

Basic principles
 +
*use the ratio with the least gears to achieve the output
 +
*avoid large gears, they are '''way''' too expensive
 +
*have three  outputs where the constraints (30 gears, 15 shafts) allow, and it's not too expensive

I built this using the bold ratios, after I'd done a few and built a plan I looked back - clearly the italics would have been a better place to start.

I looked at hte Itallic ratios first, then settled on the bold ones.  Still not happy about using a large gear.

There were LOTS of options here, these were the ones I picked out to try and fit together.  They weren't all first picks.  In the end I had to use some large gears because
 +
*I was running into shaft/gear limitations
 +
*The B and G outputs were in the same range - but I needed some way to cross the D train

A output was stepped up half way through the D output's chain, then stepped down again.  This design was by [[User:Al-Rischa|Al-Rischa]] and I am indebted to him and [[User:Justin|Justin]] for the time tey put into solving this one for QR Raeli Pottery.

Overview

The theory on gearboxes and how to design them was all well and good. Here's how I applied it.

My early builds are 2 output, I know I should be making 3 output just to make them more versatile. These aren't recommendations either, just records. I can already see that my first designs were not well optimised and I've only just begun.

Basic principles

  • use the ratio with the least gears to achieve the output
  • avoid large gears, they are way too expensive
  • have three outputs where the constraints (30 gears, 15 shafts) allow, and it's not too expensive

Builds

B154-185; G346-370

Ratios

B159-185 G346-370
(5/3)*(5/3)*(4/7) (6/5/3)*(6/5)*(6/5)*(6/5)
(6/5/3)*(4/7/5) (5/3)*(5/3)*(5/7/4)
(5/3)*(5/3)*(5/6)*(5/6) (6/5/3)*(7/4)
(5/3) (5/3)*(5/3)*(4/7/5/3)
(6/5)*(7/5) (5/3)*(5*3)*(5*3)*(5/6)
(6/5)*(6/5)*(6/5)
(5/3)*(5/6)*(5/7/4)
(7/4)
(5/3)*(5/6)*(4/7/5/3)

I built this using the bold ratios, after I'd done a few and built a plan I looked back - clearly the italics would have been a better place to start.

(3/5/6)*(7/4)
(6/5)*(3/5/7/4)
(5/3)*(5/6)*(5/6)*(5/6)

I looked at hte Itallic ratios first, then settled on the bold ones. Still not happy about using a large gear.

(5/3)*(5/3)*(5/3)*(5/6)
(6/5/3)*(6/5/3)

There were LOTS of options here, these were the ones I picked out to try and fit together. They weren't all first picks. In the end I had to use some large gears because

  • I was running into shaft/gear limitations
  • The B and G outputs were in the same range - but I needed some way to cross the D train
