1.2.6 Maximizing Motor Power - VEX

Torque- Exerted by the operating torque of the motor, through a gear ratio of 8:1 (11.28 N-m) = 35.6 MPa = 5.7E12 cycles to failure. Steering Shaft (Diameter=1/4”) Material: 303 Stainless Steel, Yield Strength= 240 MPa, Ultimate Strength= 620 MPa. Max Stress. Loading is based on torque alone (0.745 N-m) Stress Calculation- = 25.7 MPa = 14.8 MPa ................
