These rack & pinion drives are ideal for a wide range of applications, including axis drives requiring precise positioning & repeatability, traveling gantries & columns, pick & place Gear Rack For Rack Actuator robots, and materials handling systems. Weighty load capacities and duty cycles can also be easily handled with these drives. Industries served include Materials Handling, Automation, Aerospace, Machine Tool and Robotics.
Eliminates the need for another mounting surface for the rail
Additional alignment between the rack and rail isn’t necessary
Space-conserving, performance optimized designs may be accomplished
Different quality racks available for best price-performance ratio
Allows assembly of rack and rail from machine frame
This rack range further expands the already wide selection of ATLANTA rack & pinion drives. With this range, it is possible to achieve optimal designs for every application constraints. For recommendations on how to integrate the Integrated Rack into your style, please consult the factory.
Teeth: The teeth are the portion of the gear that makes contact 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 gear may be the distance between equivalent points of adjacent teeth. When the teeth of gears mesh properly they prevent slipping and may exhibit efficiencies of up to 98%.
Our Integrated Racks install directly to most standard linear guides, eliminating the need for additional machining and alignment, saving money and time. Key benefits include:
Radius: The gear radius is defined differently based on the particular portion of the apparatus being discussed. The two most relevant measurements, nevertheless, are the root radius and the addendum radius. The root radius may be the distance from the center of the gear to the bottom of the teeth while the addendum radius (also known as the “pitch” radius) may be the distance from the guts of the gear to the exterior of the teeth.
In order to ensure that the apparatus rack you get is right for the application, seek out a reliable and skilled gear rack manufacturer who will take time to pay attention to your application in order to suggest the proper product. Depending on the application and the requirements of this application, one’s teeth on the apparatus rack might need to be spaced a particular way in order to provide proper torque and efficiency. This small change could make a world of difference in how your steering program or railway track features.
Gears are mechanisms that mesh together via teeth and are used 
to transmit rotary movement from one shaft to some other. Gears are defined by two important items: radius and amount of teeth. They are typically mounted, or linked to other parts, via a shaft or base.
