Stainless Steel Gear Rack

A Gear Rack or Rack Gear contains spur gear teeth or helical gear teeth cut on a linear rectangular or round rod. Both round equipment racks and linear equipment racks can be described as a sector gear with an infinitely large radius of curvature.

The most obvious usage of a spur gear rack is to convert the rotary motion of a pinion gear into linear motion or vise versa. When assembled, they are known as a rack and pinion. Rack gears offer an advantage over ball screws because they have got a big load carrying capability and a simple design that allows linking multiple racks to meet your required length.
We carry both rectangular and round cross-section gear rack styles in a
selection of precision pitches. All our in . and metric equipment racks Stainless Steel Gear Rack possess machined ends for applications requiring the use of multiple gear racks in a string.
When your machine's precision motion drive exceeds what can easily and economically be achieved via ball screws, rack and pinion is the logical choice. Best of all, our gear rack comes with indexing holes and installation holes pre-bored. That saves you plenty of time, hassle and expenditure.

If your travel duration is more than can be obtained from a single amount of rack, no problem. Precision machined ends allow you to butt extra pieces and continue going.
A rack is also called equipment rack or just railing. They are rectangular shaped rods that are provided on one aspect with toothing just like a gear. By utilizing a gear that partcipates in the toothing of the rack, it is possible to move the gear or the rack longitudinally. Tooth racks are used, among other activities, in machines where a rotational motion should be converted to a straightforward motion or vice versa.

If power transmitting is completed by equipment coupling, module transmission can be used. Usually the module identifies the kind of the gear in fact it is the ratio between pitch and p. Module adjustments based on the pitch. Here following conversion table.
The existing industry standard, these 20° pressure angle gears have thicker, stronger teeth than 14½° pressure angle gears. In comparison to plastic material gears and racks, they're better for high-load, high-speed, and heavy duty applications. Also referred to as spur gears.
