Anybody have experience with multiple rack and pinion
mates? I'm trying to model a rotary input to a (red) pinion
thatdrives a (yellow) rack - there is a pin on the (yellow) rack
whichhas another (blue) pinion attached so that a second (purple)
racktravels twice as far as the second pinion - there is a
stationary(green) rack to make the secondary pinion rotate as
ittranslates - make sense? a rack with mechanical advantage -
Ican get the first rack & pinion mate to work fine - but
whenthe blue pinion is moved by the yellow rack it seems
todisregard the rack & pinion mate to the green rack -
anybodyever seen a similar issue?
