These rack & pinion drives are perfect for a wide variety of applications, including axis drives requiring precise positioning & repeatability, traveling gantries & columns, pick & place robots, and materials handling systems. Large load capacities and duty cycles may also be easily handled with these drives. Industries served include Material Handling, Automation, Aerospace, Machine Tool and Robotics.
Eliminates the necessity for a separate mounting surface for the rail
Additional alignment between the rack and rail isn’t necessary
Space-conserving, performance optimized designs may be gear rack for railway axle accomplished
Different quality racks designed for best price-performance ratio
Allows assembly of rack and rail off of machine frame
This rack range further expands the already wide variety of ATLANTA rack & pinion drives. With this range, it is possible to achieve optimal styles for every application constraints. For recommendations on how to integrate the Integrated Rack into your style, please seek advice from the factory.
Teeth: The teeth are the portion of the gear that makes connection with another gear. To ensure that two gears to mesh together the pitch should be the same for all mating pairs. The pitch of a equipment may be the distance between equivalent points of adjacent the teeth. When one’s teeth of gears mesh correctly they prevent slipping and may exhibit efficiencies of up to 98%.
Our Integrated Racks mount directly to most regular linear guides, eliminating the need for additional machining and alignment, saving time and money. Key benefits include:
Radius: The apparatus radius is defined differently based on the particular section of the apparatus being discussed. Both most relevant measurements, however, will be the root radius and the addendum radius. The root radius may be the distance from the guts of the gear to the base of the teeth while the addendum radius (also known as the “pitch” radius) is the distance from the center of the apparatus to the outside of the teeth.
In order to make sure that the gear rack you purchase is right for the application, seek out a reliable and experienced gear rack manufacturer who will take the time to pay attention to your application in order to suggest the proper product. Depending on the application and the requirements of that application, the teeth on the gear rack may need to be spaced a specific way in order to provide appropriate torque and effectiveness. 
This small change could make an environment of difference in how your steering system or railway track functions.
Gears are mechanisms that mesh together via the teeth and so are used to transmit rotary movement from one shaft to some other. Gears are defined by two essential items: radius and amount of the teeth. They are usually mounted, or connected to other parts, via a shaft or base.
