Yes Islander I had spotted the error, I was using duff data gleaned from the web.
But the error did get me thinking how I could match the speed, because I realised that the drill motor is primarily providing the turning force only for the screw thread winch, a bit like an ARCO prop to hold up a house during renovations. That's why the drill motor had no difficultly hauling 50lbs on a dead lift.
The thread on the prop holds up the house, the builder only has to provide a turning force to jack up the prop to where he wants it.
OK to refresh.
Hi-Tech winch turns 360 degrees in 1.68 seconds and hauls in 119mm of sheet on a standard 38mm dia. drum
i.e. 35 rpm hauls in 4250mm of sheet ( 60/1.68 x 119 = 4250).
To compare :-
Screw thread winch, 360 degrees moves the nut 1.2mm and the drill motor turns the shaft at 1300 rpm through the planetary gear box and hauls in 1560 mm
ie 1300rpm hauls in 1560mm of sheet. (1300 x 1.2 = 1560)
To match the Hi-tech, the Screwthread winch has to turn at 4250/1560 = 2.7 times faster
i.e. 1300 x 2.7 = 3542 rpm therefore 3542 x 1.2 = 4250mm of sheet in 60 seconds.
An RS 540 motor on 12V turns at 16800 rpm unload speed, since the screw thread is taking all the pulling force from the sheet and hence the sail . . . . . . .
why can't the RS 540 drive the screw thread?
Hmmmmm!
To gear down the RS540 to 3542 rmp we need a 1: 5 reduction gearbox (16800/3542 = 4.7)
You can see where I'm going I hope.
