Hello All, Nice and correct description, Luis. A range changer would have a ratio of 1:4 in this example. (16z/16z and 32z/8z) A Splitter would have a ratio of 1: 1.25. (16z/16z and 16z/12z) Hmm, these ratios are a little bit hard to build though... (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Mechanically, I would think of the splitter as an additional gearbox. Using the same example Maico gave, you have a 4-speed plus reverse gearbox. The splitter would be simply an additional 2-speed gearbox. Suppose the ratios in the 4-speed (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) A closer look at the upper right pic reveals that the combine harvester pretty much has all the same functions as the last "official" combine harvester model, 8862's alternate model. It DOES look better than 8862's, though. (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yeah I suppose it would be, because you would have two different sets of gears that could both be changed. So in that way they'd be the same. The trick is to not duplicate ratio's because that's a waste. (18 years ago, 22-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
