Rack and Pinion

In a system with a rack and pinion, the following must be considered:

The weight or mass of the pinion

The weight or mass of the rack

The friction and/or preload between the pinion and the rack

Any friction in the guidance of the rack

The weight or mass of the object the rack is moving

Conveyor Belt

In a system with a conveyor belt, the following must be considered:

The weight and size of the cylindrical driving pulley or roller

The weight of the belt

The weight or mass and size of the idler roller or pulley on the opposite end

The angle or elevation of the belt

Any load the belt may be carrying
