Mastering Gear Ratios: Jvan Airsoft's Precision Engineered Solutions
Optimize AEG Performance with Strategic Gear Ratio Selection
Gear Ratios Decoded: The Core Principle
Gear ratios (e.g., 18:1, 13:1, 12:1) define the mechanical efficiency of your AEG:
- Ratio = Bevel Gear Revolutions : Piston Cycle
- Example: 18:1 requires 18 bevel rotations for 1 piston cycle.
- Lower Ratio = Faster Cycling: 12:1 cycles pistons 50% faster than 18:1.
Performance-Driven Ratio Selection
1. Ultimate Trigger Response (Semi-Auto Dominance)
- Optimal Ratio: 13:1
- Motor Synergy: Pair with 18-22 TPA high-torque motors.
Result:
- 0.05s trigger engagement
- Perfect for CQB (<25m engagements)
- Stable output at 350-400 FPS
- Engineering Insight: Lower ratios increase tooth stress. Jvan Airsoft’s CNC-steel gears eliminate shear failure risks.
2. Balanced Speed & Reliability
Versatile Ratios:
- 12:1: Max speed (35 RPS cap)
- 16:1: All-rounder (25-30 RPS)
- 18:1: Torque-focused (20 RPS)
3.Critical Technical Considerations
Durability Science:
- Ratios <16:1 accelerate wear on polymer pistons.
- Jvan Solution: Case-hardened steel gears (HRC 58+) withstand 500k+ cycles.
4.Torque Compensation:
12:1 builds demand 30k+ motors to prevent PME.
5.Field Legality:
30 RPS builds may violate full-auto rules at CQB fields.
