Design of 10:1 Speed Reducer for an Elevator

This work aims to design a mechanical transfer system that allows us to integrate the need for power and speed ratio existing in the industry to obtain a safe mechanism ensuring the transmission system, which is optimal for maintenance. The methodology consists of two-stage gearbox design features a gear mechanism with a gear ratio of 10 to 1 to decrease the output speed and increase the motor torque. The gearbox design parameters were calculated using the Excel program; for the simulations the SolidWorks program was used. To check the gear analysis, the calculation of the safety factor of the pinion, the gears and the material validation are evidenced.
