Abstract

This paper outlines the design, development, and practical implementation of a rubber belt-driven dual cone continuously variable transmission (CVT) model. This model enables a demonstration of stepless changes in the transmission ratio between input and output shafts. Although the model can be operated manually via a control panel, enhanced functionality, such as automated measurement, proportional-integral-derivative (PID) speed control, and data measurement and storage, is achieved through a control application created within the LabVIEW virtual instrument environment. This work also includes a partial comparison between the practical implementation and its simulation model created in MATLAB-Simulink.
