Which one do you need?

Gear Ratio & Output Speed Calculator
Calculate the ratio, output speed and output torque of a single or multi-stage gear train from tooth counts, input RPM, input torque and stage efficiency.
V-Belt Length Calculator
Calculate V-belt pitch length from two pulley diameters and center distance, or solve the center distance a standard belt needs. Includes wrap angles.
Pulley Speed & Ratio Calculator
Solve any belt drive unknown: driven RPM, driver RPM or either pulley diameter. Get the drive ratio, belt surface speed in FPM and m/s, and shaft torque.
