Axial Thrust on Driver Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Axial Thrust on Driver is:

\[ F_{a1} = F_1 \cdot \tan(\alpha_1) \]

Where:

\(F_{a1}\) is the Axial Thrust on Driver (N)
\(F_1\) is the Force Applied Tangentially on Driver (N)
\(\alpha_1\) is the Spiral Angle of Gear Teeth for Gear 1 (rad)

Definition

Axial thrust on driver refers to a propelling force applied along the axis (also called axial direction) of an object in order to push the object against a platform in a particular direction.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Force Applied Tangentially on Driver (\(F_1\)) = 9 N
Spiral Angle of Gear Teeth for Gear 1 (\(\alpha_1\)) = 0.785398163397301 rad

Using the formula:

\[ F_{a1} = 9 \cdot \tan(0.785398163397301) \]

Evaluating:

\[ F_{a1} = 8.99999999999735 \text{ N} \]

The Axial Thrust on Driver is 8.99999999999735 N.
