Straight-toothed rack and pinion

helical-toothedprecision

Precision racks purpose is to convert a pinion rotation to its exact equivalence in linear movement. For machine-tool engineering, the linear motion must be controlled within a few microns. To conquer this technological challenge, REDEX global solution includes the combination of high-tech dedicated planetary gearheads (integral output pinions), and high precision racks (machine-tool quality manufacturing). An outstanding combination of high stiffness and high accuracy, which leads naturally to the top quality features requested by the highest dynamic drives systems for machine axes : accuracy, reliability, energy, efficiency (eco-design), and long service life.
