motor rpm x motor pulley diameter / machine pulley diameter = machine rpm

ex:
3600 rpm motor
2 inch diameter motor pulley diameter
8 inch diamter machine pulley diameter

3600 rpm x 2 / 8 = 900 rpm at machine


no Java or web browser needed. :D

But that beltpulleycalc page is nice if you want/need -other- belt/pulley info, like center distance or belt length etc. :drinkup:
