I have an application where I need to speed up a shaft. I was thinking of using an inline planetary gearbox (like you would see on a servo drive), but running it backwards - so that the output shaft spins faster than the input shaft.
Does this work? I know some gears can be back driven (like a spur gear) and some cannot (like a harmonic drive? not sure). Any pitfalls?
Thank you!
