    Linear velocity translation

    I am trying to translate the relation between wheel angle/rotational speed and linear velocity for a situation where you have two drive rollers perpendicular to a shaft.
    I posted a video to clarify my meaning. This machine piviots the drive knurl rollers from 0 to 7 degrees.



    We are trying to investigate the possibility of running a given quantity of tube on 1 machine similar to the one posted.
    Any assistance would be apriciated.

    Well, if you have CAD - 2D or 3D you could simply model the geometry (circles) and measure...

    J, I am not sure exactly what you are asking to define. Can you be a little more expansive?

    You'd need roller diameter, tube diameter, the Helix angle of the "feed" and the drive RPM. That's based on a guess of what you need to find though.
