My gear ratio is breaking

I have a gear ratio hooked to a conveyor that works on it own but as soon as we put the conveyor on it stops moving



Why is this happening

It looks like your gear ratio is way too fast, according to my estimates of the gear sizes you are using, even with a 100 rpm red gear cartridge the speed of the last gear would be 1167 rpm, which is very fast. Instead of going from a big gear to a small gear, you should be going from a small gear to a big gear so instead of getting the final gear faster you are getting it slower and higher torque. It would also help if you could explain what you are using this for.

Most likely because of how you are attaching the conveyor, I would have to see it attached to help more.

This helped stopping to from moving thank you
