    Mechanical Advantage of Rack and Pinion

    Hi All, Sorry for the confusion. Let me explain clearly what I mean my mechanical advantage. I need a torque of 100 lb-in at the center of the pinion. I can get an input force of 25lbs from the power source (not more than that) and I can only use 4" dia pinion (limited by space). Therefore I was...

    Mechanical Advantage of Rack and Pinion

    Thanks IRstuff, that completely made sense. But the question still remain unanswered of how to determine the Mechanical Advantage, based on the spacing of the teeth.

    Mechanical Advantage of Rack and Pinion

    Thank You all. Looks like there is no MA from rack and pinion. Its only the torque which is based on the diameter of the Pinion. So if this is true, then the linear velocities of both the rack and pinion will always be the same right???
