I see a lot of talk about using motors with lots of low end torque, why is this ?

The EDGE Products - Frequently Asked Questions
Torque is a matter of leverage, acceleration of mass & the motors resistance to the mass slowing down. For example, a motor with a long stroke has more leverage because of the crankshafts offset. The distance from the crank center to the big end is the amount of leverage. The bigger this offset, (the stroke) the more torque a motor will have. This is because when you increase the offset it also has to be counter balanced to make sure the motor is balanced & runs smooth.

How much torque do the motors have?

DAK Engineering
Tough question to answer, since steppers do not produce constant torque over their entire range. The static torque for the Z axis stepper is 370 oz-in, and the X is 150 oz-in. These are geared 3:1 and 2.5:1 to the leadscrews respectively, so there's quite a bit of torque capability there at low speeds. If you're thinking of building your own system, these are probably pretty good numbers to start with. I keep the gibs pretty tight, so there's a bit of drag in there to contend with.

I've heard that the V-10 TDI Touareg makes 553 pound feet of torque. Is that a lot?

Volkswagen Touareg Frequently-Asked Questions
Yes, 553 pound feet of torque is a lot. You would be able to drive the Touareg straight up a cliff face if traction allowed. Very few other vehicles on the road make anywhere near 553 pound feet of torque. Another interesting fact: In 1st gear of the Tiptronic, with the transmission set to low-range, the V-10 TDI Touareg produces 27,836 pound feet of torque at the wheels. It depends of the date of manufacture, the vehicle configuration, and the market.

h) What type, model, size and torque motors are being used to drive this telescope?

Meade Instruments - MAX Robotic German Equatorial Mount
We are using a DC servo motor from Pittman that is capable of very large torque. The model number is 14204S004. Because the worm screw is spring loaded into the worm gear, friction is large and a larger motor was required to overcome the load. described above, there are no clutches or any means to disengage the worm screw from the worm gear. Balance is achieved via an Autostar software routine.

What is torque?

FAQ
Torque is a force that, when applied to what object, causes a turning motion. Torque is used to open doors, tighten screws, rotate wheels, and ride see-saws. Although forces are used on all these objects, these forces do not cause the object to accelerate in a straight line, but instead to turn. Torque is calculated by multiplying the force that is applied to the object by the distance the force was from the axis of rotation.

Customer Support -- FAQ
Torque is the work produced by the engine resulting from the pressure on the top of all of the pistons, which push on the crankshaft through their connecting rods. The actual torque of the crankshaft varies as the cylinders move to different cycle positions. Engine torque is the average torque produced by all of the cylinders throughout the cycle, and it is measured in pound-feet.

How can I improve the low end in my Marshall?

Kevin O'Connor's Amplifier / Tube Amplifier FAQ
Often, a new set of main filter caps is all that is required! LCR makes some larger values that fit the same clamps and holes, so you can also increase the over-all capacitance of the supply. In the past, techs added new caps under the chassis, or on top of it. The latter requires punching holes, and destroys the stock appearance - and thus is not recommended. Another method to improve the bass is to decrease the power of the fundamental frequencies, which sounds counterintuitive.

How does the Model 9600 compare to battery or low voltage motors?

SM Automatic - Motorization for Interior Window Treatments
The Model 9600 is infinitely more sophisticated and heavier duty than a battery or low voltage system. With a battery or low voltage motor, there are significant restrictions in available shade sizes, while the Model 9600 can handle shades deemed both too small and too large by the others. Further, because of the heavy duty nature of the Model 9600 motor, you can expect a much longer service life than for the alternatives.

If the drapery motors are low voltage controlled, do I have to plug in a transformer?

SM Automatic - Motorization for Interior Window Treatments
No. The term “low voltage” refers only to the control aspects of the motor, which are handled by the built in electronics. Typically no, but you need to get clarification from the contractor or control system subcontractor. Usually, in these situations, the contractor is mistaken (out of lack of knowledge) in requesting that you provide remote controlled motors.

I'm using the mixer in my home and I have a lot of "bleed" through the faders. What's wrong?

Technical Support
Nothing really. The mixer is putting out a +4 dBu (1.23 Vrms) signal which is 12 dB stronger than the normal home stereo level of - 10 dBV (0.316 Vrms). Since the mixer's signal is so much louder, the residual "noise" (the signal you don't want to hear) is more audible. Try turning down the level controls on your amplifier (or receiver.)

Simply said it's what fish need to live; it's where they live. It's clean, cool water in the right amounts. It's the trees and shrubs that shade streams and help filter pollutants that enter the water. And because fish and people share the same habitat, everything we do in managing our land and water affects salmon.

You talk a lot about your fractal dimension indicator. What is that?

Fractal Market Report
The term "fractal dimension" is quite imposing, but it's actually a pretty simple idea. This indicator measures whether a chart more resembles a one-dimensional line, or a 2-dimensional plane. That's it. On the chart, the actual number shown represents the measured dimension between 1 (a line) and 2 (a plane). A fractal dimension reading on the chart of 55 is equivalent to a fractional dimension of 1.55. A reading of 30 is 1.30, and so on.
