Ratio describes the relationship between the tooth counts. Shaft angle describes how the two axes intersect. Mounting geometry describes where the two finished components are positioned in the housing. Treating any one of these as a complete definition can lead to a pair that looks plausible but does not fit the intended assembly.<\/p>\n<section class=\"ep-section\">\n<div class=\"ep-container ep-split\">\n<div>\n<h2>Put ratio and axis relationship on the same assembly definition<\/h2>\n<p>A ratio can be written as tooth counts or as a numerical relationship, but the drawing should identify which count belongs to the gear and which belongs to the pinion.
