Usage
Conveying Rotation
Cogwheels have three main methods of interlocking:
- Two Cogwheels interlock when placed next to each other (not diagonally) and facing the same direction. When rotational force is provided to one of the cogwheels, the force will be provided to the other Cogwheel at the same speed but in the opposite direction.
- Two Large Cogwheels interlock when placed perpendicular to each other. This allows the rotational force to change axes and turn corners. When one Large Cogwheel conveys rotation to another, speed will not be changed but direction will be reversed.
- A Cogwheel and a Large Cogwheel interlock when placed diagonally to each other and facing the same direction. The Large Cogwheel will rotate at half the speed of the Cogwheel.
A cogwheel can also be used like a Shaft, conveying rotation from the ends of its axis. Mechanical components can be connected to each end, and several Cogwheels connected end-to-end function the same as multiple shafts would.
Adjusting Speed
Using pairs of Cogwheels and Large Cogwheels, rotational speed can be easily doubled or halved using the mechanic mentioned above. This is useful for powering mechanical components that have a minimum rotation speed requirement, such as the Mechanical Mixer. It is possible to connect many pairs of Large Cogwheels and Cogwheels to apply this mechanic repeatedly. The only limit to applying this mechanic is that it is impossible to exceed the maximum speed limit of 256 RPM.
A Large Cogwheel can also be connected to a Rotation Speed Controller, which can be used to adjust speed compactly and precisely.
