FAQ
Common questions about this series
Ground helical rack: what size range does the table cover?
The table lists 34 standard racks: module 1–10, standard lengths 480 / 500 / 507 / 960 / 1000 mm (18–300 teeth per piece). Racks can be butt-jointed end to end for longer travel; other modules, lengths and mounting-hole patterns are made to drawing.
Ground helical rack: what is it and when should I use it?
Helical racks · RH 19°31′42″ · ground teeth · 20° pressure angle; smooth, quiet and high-capacity — for high-speed gantries and heavy-load precision linear drives. Choose ground racks (Grade 6, induction hardened HRC 50–55) for laser gantries, CNC axes and any drive where positioning accuracy and long life matter; milled racks (about Grade 7) are the economical option for medium-accuracy automation and conveying. Helical teeth run smoother at speeds above roughly 60 m/min and carry about 30% more load per face width, at the cost of axial thrust on the pinion bearings.
Ground helical rack: can I order a size that is not in the table, or just one piece?
Yes. Everything on this page is made to drawing, and the table is only the standard-size subset of the catalogue. Minimum order quantity is one piece — we routinely make single replacement parts for OEMs whose original supplier has discontinued the item. Send a DWG, STEP or PDF drawing (or a sample part): you get a formal quotation within 24 hours after the information is complete, and the first article ships within 30 days of drawing approval, with inspection records.
Ground helical rack: what do I need to send to get a quote?
Send the drawing or: module, straight or helical (with helix angle), length and number of teeth, cross-section (height × width), mounting-hole pattern, accuracy class and hardening requirement, whether ends must be matched for jointing, and quantity. Tell us the pinion you use so pitch and profile match.
