Excellent project, very good analysis, just a consultation:

- Do you have a reference gearbox in the current market?

Re: -- Aquilesmorillo (talk) 23:18, 15 December 2020 (CET)

Thank you, the most important thing is to select a gearbox with a high ratio like the one used here of 1:100 and with the required safety to prevent the load from being returned. Here is a reference, that supplier offers reducers with auto-blocking system (99 series) and with the required ratio:

Part number 1.18 -- Inddigital (talk) 23:43, 15 December 2020 (CET)

Will a 10 mm cable be sufficient to carry a 200 kg load?

Re: Part number 1.18 -- Aquilesmorillo (talk) 23:54, 15 December 2020 (CET)

Sure, you can use this table as a guide:

D [inch]	D [mm]	Safe Load [kN]
1/4	6.4	4.89
5/16	8	7.56
3/8	9.5	10.9
716	11.5	14.7
1/2	13	19.0
9/16	14.5	24.0
5/8	16	29.7
3/4	19	42.3
7/8	22	57.4
1	26	74.3

For 3/8" [9.5 mm], we have a safe load of 10.9 kN [1111 kg]

How is the mechanical behavior in extreme cases, such as impacts?
