I'm making a rc cart with 4 wheels with rubber tracks on them. Two front wheels are powered by two dc motors 3.5-15[Nm] torque. Torque of 15[Nm] represent stalled torque.
Let's say that friction between wheel axel and body of cart is minimal. Diamter of axle is 10[mm] and the diameter of wheel is 100[mm]. Motor spins at 35-70[rpm] depending on two posible gears (it's a windscreen wiper motor).
What is maximum load it can carry?
I found some calulations that are totaly different. One of them says it can carry 230kg unlike the other says only 15kg. I guess calculation of 15kg would be maximum lifting force instead of pulling but I'll let you decide what is correct.
Thank you very much!
