Rotary Table
In a system with a rotary table, the following must be considered:
The weight or mass and size of the table
Any parts or load the table is carrying
The position of the load on the table, the distance from the center of the table will af-
fect the inertia
How the table is being driven and supported also affects the inertia
Belt Drive
In a system with a belt drive, the following must be considered:
The weight or mass and size of the driving pulley
The tension and/or friction of the belt
The weight or mass and size of the driven pulley
Any load the system may be moving or carrying
Weight and size
of drive pulley
Weight and size
