Rack and Pinion Catalog1 schlenkent（齿条齿轮Catalog1schlenkent）.pdfVIP

The use of specially adapted thread grinding machines gives our rack a highly accurate helicoidal tooth profile which provides two distinct advantages - very good pitch accuracy and sufficient tolerance of meshing conditions (within 0.25°). This tooth form exhibits a high tolerance to misalignment when meshing with a straight-cut pinion and is ideal for harsh environments. The way this tolerance is derived will be appreciated from the diagram below. Slight misalignment of the straight tooth pinion, in terms of deviation from a true right-angle between the axis and the rack in either plane, results merely in a change of position of the contact points across the face. Mesh Geometry // Points of contact Standard pressure angel is 20° 25° pressure angle available on request Features such as high reliability and repeatability ensure that rack and pinion systems are the first choice for linear and angular measurement applications. By butting lengths of rack together, extremely long axes can be measured to the highest accuracy. For further information, please call us at 708/449-5700.
