The document describes how to calculate the reduction ratio of a strain wave gearing mechanism. It provides an example where a flex spline with 200 teeth and a circular spline with 202 teeth would result in a reduction ratio of -0.01. This means the flex spline would spin at 1/100th the speed of the wave generator plug, but in the opposite direction. It also contains an unrelated section about actuators and motors used in a robotic arm.

6. For strain wave gearing mechanism the gearing reduction ratio can be calculated as follows:
Reduction Ratio = (Flex Spline Teeth C Circular Spline Teeth)
Flex spline Teeth
For example, if there are 202 teeth on the circular spline and 200 on the flex spline, the reduction ratio
is (200 ? 202)/200 = ?0.01
Thus the flex spline spins at 1/100 the speed of the wave generator plug and in the opposite direction.
