Gear racks and spur gearsGear racks and spur gears
A rack is also called gear rack or simply railing. They are rectangular shaped rods that are provided on one side with toothing just like a gear. By using a gear that engages in the toothing of the rack, it is possible to move the gear or the rack longitudinally. Tooth racks are used, among other things, in machines where a rotational motion must be converted to a straightforward movement or vice versa.
If power transmission is carried out by gear coupling, module transmission must be used. Usually the module identifies the type of the gear and it is the ratio between pitch and p. Module changes according to the pitch. Here following the conversion table.
| Pitch | Module |
| 3,1416 | 1 |
| 4,7124 | 1,5 |
| 6,2832 | 2 |
| 7,8540 | 2,5 |
| 9,4248 | 3 |
