An EGR valve (20) comprises three gear parts (40, 42, 44) that provide a variable ratio drive system through which an electric actuator (34) operates a movable valve element (26). Each of the gear parts (40, 42, 44) is a single unitary part, with one part (42) containing two sets of gear teeth (46, 48) each associating with a set of gear teeth of a respective one of the other two parts. Limit stops (56, 58, 60; 68, 70) are integrally formed in two parts (42, 44).
