Formulas

i = n₁ / n₂
n₂ = n₁ / i
M₂ = M₁ × i × η
P₂ = P₁ × η
i = Gear ratio [-]
n₁/n₂ = Input/output speed [min⁻¹]
M₁/M₂ = Input/output torque [Nm]
η = Efficiency [0–1]

Typical Efficiencies

Spur gearbox97–99%
Planetary gearbox95–98%
Bevel gearbox95–98%
Worm gearbox40–90%

Note: Efficiency η is entered as a percentage value (e.g. 95 for 95%). For multi-stage gearboxes, individual stage efficiencies are multiplied together.
