Design Guide

Designs the pulley size based on the transmission ratio rather than setting up driven pulley size manually. For a standard driven pulley, the generator finds closest pulley size to accomplish the appropriate transmission ratio.

Custom size

Specifies the custom pulley size. By default, the pulley size is standard. It is driven by a data table stored within the Design Data folder. The data template is a fast and easy way to set up pulley size by changing the diameter of the pulley. If the custom size option is switched on, you are responsible for all pulleys' properties.

You can change the belt direction to counterclockwise to change the motion direction.
