The centre distance between the pinion shaft and the rack face is critical—manufacturer specifications are usually held to ±0.05 mm for precision CNC applications. Misalignment between the rack and parallel linear guide rails should be within roughly 0.1 mm/m to prevent uneven tooth loading.

T_required = (Fn × d) / 2000 (Nm)

For vertical applications, the formula accounts for gravity:

Fs=σ×b×m×Ycap F sub s equals sigma cross b cross m cross cap Y where is allowable stress, is face width, and is the Lewis form factor.

To determine the maximum rotational speed of the pinion based on the linear speed requirement, utilize the following formula:
