Gear Racks
Gear racks are linear, toothed bars designed to engage with a rotating pinion gear, converting rotary motion into linear motion or vice versa. They are essential components in various mechanical systems manufactured from steel, stainless steel, aluminum, or plastic. The tooth profile of a gear rack is crucial for proper meshing with the pinion, and factors such as load capacity, linear speed, accuracy, and backlash must be considered when selecting a gear rack for a specific application.
