Engineered product

Rack and pinion sets,
cut as a matched pair.

Rack and pinion mechanisms for linear motion, actuation and control applications — designed for the load case, cut on our own machines and inspected as a matched set.

A rack is only
as good as its pinion.

We manufacture rack and pinion mechanisms for linear motion, actuation and control applications, from individual racks through to complete drive sets.

Cutting both halves in one shop matters. Backlash, contact pattern and tooth engagement are controlled across the pair rather than assumed to work when parts arrive from two suppliers.

  • Gear racks, cut and ground
  • Matched pinions
  • Rack and pinion drive sets
  • Load rating to AGMA 2001
  • Hardened and ground tooth forms
  • Housings and mounting components
  • Assembly and backlash setting

Typical applications

Where these end up.

Valve actuationQuarter-turn and multi-turn actuation for valve automation duty.
Linear positioningTravel and positioning drives on industrial machinery.
Control mechanismsMotion control where repeatability matters more than speed.
