🧭 How to Use

FAQ

Q1. What is a gear ratio?

A. It is the ratio of input gear teeth to output gear teeth, determining speed and torque conversion.

Q2. Does a higher gear ratio increase torque?

A. Yes — higher ratios reduce speed but increase torque.

Q3. Can I use this for robotics and automation?

A. Absolutely — gear ratios are essential for robotic actuators and servo mechanisms.

Q4. What units should I enter?

A. Speed in RPM, torque in Nm, gear ratio as a numeric ratio (e.g., 3 = 3:1).
