Scenario:
Electric motor, 30 ftlb @ 300 rpm
6000 lb load (13200 N) fixed to "this" machine
Motor drives a shaft that drives tracks (like a tank)
Will need to go up an incline (0 - 10°)
Weight of machine is not a factor
Assume frictionless system
I can't figure out how to determine if my motor can drive that load on a flat surface, let alone an incline.
I can design a gearbox to get the power needed but I need help to see if I can run it on a flat surface.
Do I have enough info to see if this motor will move the machine?
