How to use multiple joints
The assembly is attached. I introduced a hidden component to carry the Revolve joint from one component and carry the Slider joint from the other. I then added a Motion link to approximate the when the teeth engaged. I broke the file external link in order to send a F3D file back to you.

Your model was just fine except you had a wrong value in your Motion Link. You had 8mm travel for 180 degrees. The circumference of your tooth diameter is 14mm so 14 X PI = 49.9823, which is the value to enter in the Motion Link. Also, you must manually position the teeth, such as they are, and Capture Position BEFORE creating the Motion Link. I will not attach your assembly because the only error is your Motion Link math.

Are you all set now? You did not respond to my last post so I am assuming you are good to go.
