rack and pinion calculations

hiiiiiiiiiii............

i 😕am having problems with rack and pinion calculatons.................can ny i plsssssss give me the formula in terms of pitch of the rack and the no. of teeth
of the pinion. i need to findout the teeth spacing on the rack and pinion........... that can help me calculate the distance moved by the rack for 1 rotation of the pinion...........
thanx.............😛

    Without knowing the load to be moved, you can not decide the pitch of Rack & Pinion.
    Also mention the distance of the rack you required to mave by one revolution of pinion.

    ok....thanx for the reply but the problem is i am using this steering and i have a particular steering ratio in my mind. and yes i also know the total rack length and dia of the pinion. so can u plsssssssss 😔 help find out pitch.........

    There is formula for calculating the pitch, but it also requires the technical data as written earlier.

    first u need to know the load,to choose the module type.ie.module1,1.5 etc.higher the module more distance u will travel for one rotation of pinion.and lower the resolution will be.
    you need to have the gears technical handbook to choose the appropriate rack and pinon.give me some time i will post the gear reference manual.using which u can do the module and pitch calculations.

    Zorif is right. I also suggested same thing.
    From the load you can decide module od DP ( in inches). Once you know the module, you can calculate further data from gear design handbook.

    hi, i would like some information about " how to mount a rack and pinion in the vertical plane".. the pinion will be moving the rack, which will follow a reciprocating vertical motion.. the load is aprroximately 3 kg.. any recommendation on wat type of rack should i use?

    thx beforehand..
