Rack & Pinion Drive
The combination of low-backlash planetary gearboxes with high-precision pinions and racks is extremely energy-efficient, precise, dynamic and convincing thanks to the long service life. Rack & Pinion Drives of WMH Herion and VOGEL enable even machine gantries weighing tonnes to be accelerated dynamically and positioned accurately down to the μm range.
