Sep 28, 2023 at 21:16 comment added Richard Thanks for your answer. Honestly I do not aim to describe the hobbing manufacturing process, but I appreciate your explanation. I thought the hob teeth are in threading succession, which would make this model maybe more comparable. I only wanted to apply this theoretical model in practice to help the comprehension, since this design is not even close to the classic linear actuator (rack and pinion) due to absence of clearance.
