How to Increase Rotational Speed
Certain contraptions require higher rotational speeds to function efficiently. Create Mod allows you to gear up your systems using cogwheels or chain drives.
Stepping Up Speed with Cogwheels
You can alter shaft speeds by pairing large and small cogwheels:
1. Connect a large cogwheel directly to your input shaft so that it rotates at your base speed.
2. Place a small cogwheel adjacent to the teeth of the large cogwheel. Because of the size difference, the small cogwheel rotates faster than the large one.
3. Mount another large cogwheel onto the same shaft as the small cogwheel so that it spins at the newly increased speed.
4. Repeat this pattern with another small cogwheel to step up the speed further.
Adjusting Speed with Chain Drives
Encased Chain Drives normally link in a straight line to share the exact same rotation and speed across multiple parallel shafts. To manipulate velocity within a chain setup:
1. Place an Adjustable Chain Gearshift inline with your Encased Chain Drives.
2. Configure the unit to alter the speed ratio across the connected chain system, allowing you to fine-tune output speeds without building large physical gear towers.
