turns ratio for rack and pinion
Posted: Mon Feb 05, 2018 10:13 pm
Hi,
I need a bit of help I have looked through most of the posts here
and I couldn't find info on using rack and pinion, I tried several
setting but the were way off at the 5 turns per rev it moves about 6
inches or so....here is my setup,
I have a cnc router with rack and pinion drive,
gecko 203v's, kelling motors, connected to a 4 to 1 belt drive
with 30 tooth pinions. the pinions have a pitch dia of 1.5 inches.
the 203v's are set up @ 2000 steps per rev.
Thank you,
Charlie
