▊Eccentric forces
● Maximum 2:1 ratio
● 1x = bearing separation on same shaft
● 2x = distance from shaft to load or force

● CAUTION: uneven motion or even system blockage will occur if the 2:1 ratio is exceeded !
This principle is NOT load dependent! It is NOT due to edge loading. It is also NOT dependent on the driving force used! The greater the distance between the drive and guide bearings, the higher the degree of wear and required drive force.
There may be other factors that add to the braking effect, but the coefficient of friction is the main cause.
● NOTE: The Rule(2:1) is based on the static friction value of 0.25 theoretically, However, Additional lubrication can help to drop friction and extend the 2:1 ratio.
