Introduction to Linear Gear Rack

A linear gear rack is a gear rack with straight teeth that is commonly used in linear motion applications. It consists of a long strip of metal with teeth cut into it, which meshes with other transmission devices such as pinions or gearboxes to convert rotary motion into linear motion. The high alloy steel material used in the construction of this gear rack ensures strength and durability. With a 20-degree pressure angle, the linear gear rack provides a lower contact ratio between gears compared to a 14.5-degree pressure angle. It offers up to 6 feet of linear movement and has a 0.50-inch face width, an overall thickness of 0.50 inches, and a 0.05-inch addendum. This gear rack is designed to be used with pinion gears that have the same pressure angle and diametral pitch. It finds applications in various commercial and industrial sectors, including machine tool tables, lift mechanisms, guide mechanisms, and shakers.

Advantages of Linear Gear Racks

• Simple structure, easy installation, and maintenance.
• High transmission efficiency and precision.
• Strong carrying capacity and long service life.

Common Applications of Linear Gear Racks

Linear gear racks are widely used in the following fields:

• Industrial automation: machine tools, robots, automated production lines, etc.
• Logistics transportation: conveyors, sorters, palletizers, etc.
• Building construction: cranes, lifts, tower cranes, etc.
• Medical equipment: operating beds, examination beds, rehabilitation equipment, etc.
• Other fields: agricultural machinery, textile machinery, printing machinery, etc.

Factors to Consider When Selecting Linear Gear Racks

• Load Capacity: Ensure that the linear gear rack can withstand the loads in the application.
• Accuracy: The accuracy of the linear gear rack affects the overall precision of the application.
• Speed: The speed at which the linear gear rack operates impacts the application's speed.
• Stroke: The linear gear rack's stroke must meet the requirements of the application.
• Environment: The linear gear rack should be suitable for the application's operating environment.

Types of Linear Gear Racks

• Standard Linear Gear Rack: Suitable for a wide range of applications.
• Precision Linear Gear Rack: Offers higher precision for applications that require it.
• High-Speed Linear Gear Rack: Designed for applications with high-speed operations.
• Heavy Duty Linear Gear Rack: Withstands heavy loads and ideal for applications with such requirements.
• Corrosion-resistant Linear Gear Rack: Resistant to corrosion, suitable for humid or corrosive environments.
