How many turns of cable you will need on the drum for your cage and skip to move up and down by 500m
To determine the number of turns of cable required on the drum for the cage and skip to move up and down by 500m, we need to consider the diameter of the drum and the size of the cable spool.
The formula to calculate the length of cable required for a single turn of the drum is:
Length of a single turn = π x Diameter of the drum
Let's assume the diameter of the drum is D meters.
To calculate the number of turns required for the cage and skip to move up and down by 500m, we divide the total distance by the length of a single turn:
Number of turns = Total distance / Length of a single turn
So, to find the number of turns, we need to know the diameter of the drum.
