The rectification efficiency of an underdamped ratchet operated in the adiabatic regime increases according to a scaling current-amplitude curve as the damping constant approaches a critical threshold; below threshold the rectified signal becomes extremely irregular and eventually its time average drops to zero. Periodic (locked) and diffusive (fully chaotic) trajectories coexist on fine tuning the amplitude of the input signal. The transition from regular to chaotic transport in noiseless ratchets is studied numerically.
