[[File:Large_gear_setup_3.png|400px|thumb|right|More complex setup with two large gears. Torque from sources 1, 2 and 3 is combined by lower gear into a single output (4), which then goes through the upper gear to increase rotational speed at the cost of reducing torque.]] | [[File:Large_gear_setup_3.png|400px|thumb|right|More complex setup with two large gears.

To build complex and efficient power trains it's important to understand relation between ''speed'' and ''torque'', and how they are affected by ''resistance'' of a given mechanical system. | To build complex and efficient power trains it's important to understand relation between ''speed'' and ''torque'', and how they are affected by ''resistance'' of a given mechanical system. | ||
