Rack Pinion Manufacturing Process

Rack Pinion Manufacturing Process

Gear racks help transform rotating motion to linear movement. A gear rack is a set of straight teeth that are cut into one surface of a round or square section of rod. It is operated using a pinion that is a small circular gear that meshes together with the gear rack. The gear racks and pinions are described as "rack and pinion". There are a variety of ways to utilize gears. As an example, in the image the gear can be used together with a gear rack to turn the shaft parallel to it. To offer a variety of pinion and rack, KHK has many types of gear racks on hand. If the job needs a lengthy length, requiring several gear racks there are racks that have teeth that are properly arranged on the end. They are known as "gear racks that have end-milled edges". When the gear rack is made by cutting teeth, the process as well as the heat treatment process could cause it to attempt and break. We can stop this by using special presses and remedial processes.
