Belt Drive
Obtaining the RPM value using the laser tachometer is
the preferred method for determining running speed.
However, the output RPM value can be calculated using
simple arithmetic.
For simple reduction two-pulley (sheave) systems, use
the formula that follows to solve for the RPM of the driven
pulley:
Diameter, driver pulley (sheave)
Diameter, driven pulley (sheave) RPM, driver pulley (sheave)
RPM, driven pulley (sheave)
