EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This project spans for one month from 16 of November 2013 to 16 of December 2013. From
planning, job dedication, marketing survey, conceptual design, sketching, mechanical engineering
design, detail calculation to execution, a splendid motorized treadmill was being prototyped from
stretch. This machine allows users to jog anytime they want. It is mostly suitable to those living in
the cities who rarely have time to find a suitable garden or natural park to jog. To the matter of
fact, no many suitable jogging spot is available in the big metropolitan without much pollutant to
be inhaled. It is suitable to young and old. Users allow to tune the machine to their desired speed
so to jog comfortably. It came with three speed modes which are 1km/h (0.2778m/s), 5km/h
(1.389m/s) and 10km/h (2.778m/s) and it can accelerate from 0 to 3m/s in 1 second. Thus it makes
much no tedious and much no easy to the users. With the deck of 1 meter, users can jog synchronize
the speed of conveyor belt so that they won't tip over. This report encompass the detail of the
machine. It has detail planning, calculation and a detail engineering drawing. Fault analysis and
costing were considered in the project as well.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
There are 2 types of treadmill in the market which are the manual treadmill and automatic
treadmill. Manual treadmill is much simpler and lighter which passively resists the motion, moving
only when walkers push the belt with their feet. On the contrary, automatic treadmill provides the
moving platform with a wide conveyor belt driven by an electric motor. The belt moves to the rear
requiring the user to walk or run at a speed matching that of the belt. The rate at which the belt
moves is the rate of walking or running.
The first commercial motorized treadmill is developed by William Staub who is a mechanical
engineer born at Philadelphia. He got the inspiration from Dr. Kenneth Cooper who claimed that
people at that time love to excuse from jogging due to weather. Staub then challenged himself to
develop a relatively cheap treadmill to encourage people to jog regardless of when and where.
This further the cause of joining the inspiration to develop an affordable motorized treadmill so
that the people can jog to a healthy lifestyle.
2.0 MARKET AND USER NEED
1Treadmill utilizes a law of conservation of energy to convert rotational energy to potential energy
or vice versa. Human in the past used treadmill to circulate water or to move water to a higher
altitude (against gravitational potential energy). Currently electrical potential energy was turned
to rotational energy in order to run the conveyor belt in the treadmill.
These days, people use treadmill to exercise. The advantages of using a treadmill are:
a) Easy to use
b) Users can customize the speed, inclination, warm up period, cool down period and energy
spend easily.
c) Users can design custom programs to fit the time to exercise.
d) Multiple users can use the same equipment
e) Step counters and heart rate monitors to regulate fitness progress.
f) Burn calories faster.
Therefore, the product will be marketed to those who want to exercise effectively.

Besides from the study done by national health and fitness research group:
i. 65% of people who own a treadmill lost a minimum of 7% of their body weight over the
first year of owning and using the machine.
ii. 90% of treadmill owners who use it at least 3 times a week report feeling more energized
and in better physical condition from using the machine.
iii. 75% of people who bought one believe that they made the right choice in the type of
workout machine they bought.

4.0 LITERATURE REVIEW
4.1 The Advancement of Treadmill
Top Treadmill Brand:
Lifespan Fitness
Nordic Track
Have 14 treadmills on the market that priced $1000 to $1299
Feature a Google Maps feature that simulates the inclines and declines of various
roadways as well as online fitness tracking and wireless pulse and heart tracking
tools.
Precor
The Ground Effects Impact Control System uses shock absorbers built into the deck
to cushion the foot and minimize the impact felt by the body.
Its Integrated Footplant Technology varies the belt speed to accommodate for when the foot pushes
off and lands, allowing you to run naturally and not with the pulling and dragging that happens
with other treadmills. 2
Treadmill lies with the "turnspit"used to turn meat cooking over a fire.
Treadmill was used for milling, churning or shelling, running by dogs, sheeps and horses
The Colby family make carpet mills for the purpose to keep dogs fit not just for the purpose of work
William Staub then invented the latest treadmill that we seen today for people to jog and walk

3600 ๐ = 0.2778 ๐๐ โ1
๐ฃ2 = 5 ๐๐
โ= 1.389 ๐๐ โ1
๐ฃ3 = 10 ๐๐
โ= 2.778 ๐๐ โ1
Velocity ratio of the driving sprockets to the driver sprockets connected to roller is 3:1
Velocity ratio of the driver sprocket to the roller is 1:2
Hence velocity ratio of driving sprocket to roller is 3
1ร
1
2 =1.5:1
Required velocity of driving sprocket is therefore,
๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐๐ =๐๐๐๐ก๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ก๐๐
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ,
๐๐๐๐ก๐๐
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐=
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
๐๐๐๐ก๐๐
๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐๐ = ๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐๐ = 0.2778 ๐๐ โ1, 1.389 ๐๐ โ1, 2.778 ๐๐ โ1
Loading capacity,
๐ = ๐๐ = 150 ๐๐ (9.81 ๐๐ โ1) = 1471.5 ๐
When a person is running at speed about 3 m/s (more than 2.778 m/s), the force exerts o ground
or treadmill is,
๐น = 2๐๐ = 2(1471.5 ๐) = 2943 ๐
The coefficient of friction of the timing belt with MDF (medium-density fibreboard) deck is
0.15. Hence, when a 150 kg person is running at 3 m/s, the friction is
๐น๐ = ๐๐ = 0.15(2943๐) = 441.5 ๐
If the belt should be able to drive the running track from 0 m/s to 3 m/s with 150 kg user jogging
on it is 1 s, then the acceleration should be
๐ = ๐ฃ โ ๐ข
๐ก=

So, the belt needs a pulling force, ๐น๐๐ข๐๐
ฮฃ ๐น = ๐๐;
๐น๐๐ข๐๐ โ ๐น๐ = ๐๐
๐น๐๐ข๐๐ = 150 ๐๐(3 ๐๐ โ2) + 441.45 = 891.45 ๐
The maximum power needed from the motor to drive running track with acceleration of 3 m/s2 to
3 m/s is
๐ป = ๐น๐๐ข๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ก๐๐ = 891.45 ๐(2.778 ๐๐ โ1) = 2476.45 ๐ ร1 โ๐
745.7 ๐= 3.32 โ๐
The torque exerted by the motor is ๐ = ๐ป๐ (63025)

When the motor is turning to give rise to maximum treadmill speed at 10 km/h, ๐ป๐ = 3.32 โ๐
and ๐ = 694.42 ๐๐๐ as shown in part 3
๐ = 3.32(63035)

63025= 0.332 โ๐
๐ป๐2 = 301.32(347.21)
63025= 1.660 โ๐
๐ป๐3 = 301.32(694.42)
63025= 3.32 โ๐
Which ๐1 = 69.44 ๐๐๐, ๐2 = 347.21 ๐๐๐ and ๐3 = 694.42 ๐๐๐ (verified in part 3)
The specification of motor required for the treadmill is
Horsepower, ๐ป๐ = 3.32 โ๐,
Torque, ๐ = 34.04 ๐๐,
Rotational speed, ๐ ๐๐ = 694.42 ๐๐๐ adjustable to lower RPM

5.2 Design of the Timing Belt
PowerGripยฎ Timing Belt is used
From Table of Basic PowerGripยฎ Service Factors, for service up to 8 hours per daily for treadmill
purpose, service factor required is 1:1
Design ๐ป๐ = 3.32 ร 1.1 = 3.65 โ๐
Assumption 1: The RPM of motor shaft is less than 700 RPM (verified in part 4)
From belt pitch selection guide graph, 3.65 hp, 700 rpm give rise to 8 mm PowerGrip GT2 to be
chosen
Pitch, ๐ = 8๐๐
From Table of 8mm Pitch PowerGripยฎGTยฎ 2 Belt Drive Selection, for speed ratio of 3.000 and
center distance of 6.36 in
Belt Pitch length = 33.071 ๐๐ = 840 ๐๐
Belt length factor = 0.90
Number of teeth the belt has is 840 ๐๐
8 ๐๐= 105 ๐ก๐๐๐กโ
To choose an appropriate belt width, 8 mm Pitch PowerGripยฎGTยฎ 2 Power Rating Table is
referred. For RPM of motor shaft 700 rpm and groove number of 30, the base rated horsepower
for smallest width of 20 mm is about 5.32,
The maximum horsepower that the belt can withstand
= ๐ต๐๐ ๐ ๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ โ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ค๐๐ ร ๐ต๐๐๐ก ๐๐๐๐๐กโ ๐๐๐๐ก๐๐ > 5.32 ร 0.90 = 4.788 ๐ป๐ > 3.32 ๐ป๐
Hence, width of 20 mm is sufficient
Specifications of the timing belt,
Pitch = 8mm
Pitch length = 840 mm
No. of teeth of the belt = 105 teeth
Belt width = 20 mm
Material = Neoprene
Advantages of timing belt:
Does not stretch significantly or slip and consequently transmits power at a constant
angular-velocity ratio.
No initial tension is needed.
Have efficiencies in the range of 97 to 99 percent
Requires no lubrication
10
5.3 Design of Driving and Driven Sprocket
As specified earlier the speed ratio of driving and driven sprocket is 3:1
From 8 mm Pitch PowerGripยฎGTยฎ 2 Belts Drive Selection Table, for speed ratio of 3.000 and
center distance of 6.36 in
Driver sprocket will have 30 number of grooves, whereas, Driven sprocket will have 90 number
of grooves
Hence, the pitch diameter sprocket, ๐ = 3.008 ๐๐ (Assumption 2 is verified) and pitch diameter
for driven sprocket, ๐ท = 9.023 ๐๐
The minimum recommended Sprocket Outside Diameters for Horsepower of 3.32 hp and motor
RPM of 700 rpm is 2.7 in which less than ๐ = 3.008 ๐๐,
Hence, the selected pair of sprockets is acceptable
Assumption 2: The sprocket diameter of driving sprocket is 3.0008 in (verified in part 3)
Speed of the belt is fpm is
๐ < 3.008๐๐ ร 700 ๐๐๐
3.82= 551.20 ๐๐๐
Since the belt speed is less than 6500 rpm, the sprocket size is acceptable
From Table of 8 mm Pitch PowerGripยฎGTยฎ 2 Sprocket Specifications,
Driver sprocket requires 1210 bushing whereas, Driven sprocket requires 2517 bushing.
Bore diameter for the driving sprocket should be more than 0.500 in and less than 1.250 in, 0.75
in is chosen.
Bore diameter for the driven sprocket should be more than 0.500 in and less than 2.688 in, 1.5 in
is chosen
Width of both sprockets are 1.13 in

All the rotational speed of driving sprockets are lower than 1100 rpm used in the design analysis
of sprockets and belt. Therefore, our design is safe under the three speeds.

9.0 CONCLUSION
1 months of tedious planning, marketing survey, conceptual design, detail calculation and detail
prototype drawing, the hard-work has paid off. A brand new motorized treadmill has been
produced to meet the market demand, readily to be mass produced to spur a new business venture.
The new motorized treadmill will meet the requirement depicted in the objective tree. It must be
reliable, affordable and secure. In order to troubleshoot the possible dismay of the machine, a fault
tree analysis has been done. It will pass on to the respective technical department for further
warranty claim and repair job.
Detail calculation on stress and strain whereabouts has been done to locate the weak spot on the
machine so that further enhancement can be done. Choosing of the material must be scrutinized
tightly to fulfil the following requirement:
Must be easily be located. Supply can be obtained easily.
Material itself must be strong.
Can support and enhance the weak spot on the machine
Follow the ASTM standard (worldwide recognition)
With the detail calculation and required material in hand, we can sketch out the design and further
modify it using engineering drawing. AUTOCAD is used to make the drawing more explicit and
detail. With 3D modelling, clients will have the ideas of the look of the machine. As the technology
progressed, amendment can be made on the technical drawing based on the fault tree analysis. It
made it possible for the manufacturers to manufacture the product easier and faster using the
prototype printer in the future using .dwg files
