Calculate how many turns of cable you will need on your drum for your cage and skip to move up and down by 500m
n = 2 * 500 / (pi D) if halfway up and you have to move 1000 m up and 500 m down from there
To calculate the number of turns of cable needed on the drum for the cage and skip to move up and down by 500m, we need to know the circumference of the drum.
Let's assume that the circumference of the drum is C meters. The distance the cage and skip move up and down is 500m.
To calculate the number of turns, we can use the formula:
Number of turns = Total distance / Circumference
Substituting the values, the formula becomes:
Number of turns = 500 / C
Please provide the circumference value of the drum so that I can calculate the number of turns accurately.
