Helical rack and pinion

groundprecisionlinear

The Rack and Pinion System is the primary building block of a linear axis drive. This system consists of a standard range of straight (spur), circumferential pitch, and helical racks and pinions. The modular design permits rack segment lengths from 0.5 to 2 meters to be linked together end to end achieving any desired travel length from standard components. Rack and pinion parts are available with different materials, heat treatments and quality levels to insure the correct balance of power, precision and price to meet the application requirements. Features Six quality levels available, up to Hardened & Ground (AGMA 13) Nine standard Modules from Module 1.0 to 10.0 (Diametral Pitch, P, 25.4 to 2.54) Standard rack lengths up to 2.00 meters; longer travel lengths can easily be achieved by mounting the racks end-to-end Special/modified designs are possible Preloaded dual pinion gearboxes to eliminate axis backlash
