Re: Calculating Linear Force from Motor Torque?

OK, so from the gear ratio, we calculate a new torque of 35.375 lbs-in.

The radius of the pinion gear is ~ 0.4 in, lending to a linear force of 88.4375 lbs at stall Torque.

Are there any calculations that need be taken into account regarding the pinion gear teeth number or the length of the rack or whatnot?
