Diameter of drive roller = 38.808 mm
Diameter of output roller = 19.800mm
Gear ratio of Gear-OP3/LF Motor Pinion = (40/16) * (81/27) = 7.5
Gear ratio of Gear-Drive roller/LF Motor Pinion = (60/16)*(80/20) = 15
Gear ratio of Line feed/Output wrt. LF motor = 15/7.5
Linear velocity of output roller/ Linear velocity of drive roller
= (15/7.5) *(19.8/38.808) = 1.02
Hence the linear velocity of output roller is 2% faster than drive roller.
