Question:

Distance calculation of gear rotation

The gear modulus is 3mm. To move 100mm in a circle, how much is the number of teeth? What is the formula?Modulus is the length of a circle on a tooth. Walking on both gear and rack.

Answer:

What does your modulus mean? Gear on which to walk, on the rack or in other places?
Walking 100mm, I don't know what you mean. How do gears walk? And rack fit?If it fits with the rack, then:Walking distance is the circumference of the dividing circle, 100mm= PI *DD=100/ piAccording to formula D=mzThe number of teeth z=D/m= (100/ PI) /3=100/3 pi = 10.61033
Turn a circle walking 100mm, is that circumference is 100 (assuming that is dividing, dividing the diameter Park Park) that is 100/3.1416=31.831mm, z=31.861/3=10.61, and number of teeth, tooth number is not decimal, approximately 11 (gear to change Oh)
