Helical Teeth Racks
Your Professional Helical Teeth Racks Manufacturer!
Kunshan Devotec Automation Co., Ltd. was established in 2012, but its origins trace back to an initial investment by the German company WMH HERION in Qingdao, Shandong Province in 2007. Since then, we have accumulated extensive experience in engineering, manufacturing, and quality control. As a specialist in drive technology, Kunshan Devotec Automation focuses on the production of high-precision gear racks, gears, pinions, gearboxes, linear guideways, and other linear transmission components. The company also serves as a partner for several European manufacturers in China, including , Graessner, and Hönger, providing localized sales and after-sales services.

Advantages of Helical Teeth Racks
Excellent Comprehensive Mechanical Properties
Typically made of high-strength steel, helical teeth racks undergo quenching and tempering treatment to enhance hardness, toughness, wear resistance, and impact resistance.
High Transmission Efficiency
The helical tooth design ensures a longer contact line between the gear and rack during meshing, resulting in uniform load distribution. Compared with straight-tooth racks, helical-tooth racks offer higher torque, less interference and friction, thus achieving higher transmission efficiency, reducing energy loss, and simultaneously lowering noise and vibration for smoother operation.
Strong Adaptability
They can be matched with various types of gears, servo motors, and drive systems to meet the needs of different mechanical transmission systems. Additionally, they can be installed in a butt-jointed manner to achieve any length, adapting to different working stroke requirements.

Applications of Helical Teeth Racks
CNC machines
Helical teeth racks are used in CNC machines to provide precise linear positioning and motion control.
Robotics
Helical teeth racks are used in robotics to control the movement of robot arms and joints with high accuracy and repeatability.
Industrial automation
Helical teeth racks are used in industrial automation to provide linear motion in conveyor systems, packaging machines, and other automated equipment.
Printing presses
Helical teeth racks are used in printing presses to provide precise linear motion in paper feed and printing mechanisms.
Material handling systems
Helical teeth racks are used in material handling systems to control the movement of goods and materials with high accuracy and speed.
Automotive systems
Helical teeth racks are commonly used in automotive systems such as power steering and braking systems. The smooth operation and reduced noise of helical gear racks make them an ideal choice for these applications.
Installation of Helical Teeth Racks
Position and Fasten the Rack: First, place the rack on the mounting base, use locating pins for initial positioning, and then fasten the rack to the mounting surface with fasteners such as bolts to prevent displacement during installation.
Adjust Rack Clearance: During assembly, the clearance between two racks must be adjusted to match the pitch, ensuring accurate meshing between the gear and rack. Professional measuring tools, such as a pitch gauge, can be used for measuring and adjusting the clearance.
Position the Subsequent Rack: Use a reverse tooth gauge to position the next rack, ensuring consistent tooth profile and pitch between adjacent racks for stable transmission.
Check Parallelism: Inspect each interface one by one, and use a round bar to detect the parallelism of the rack. Ensure that the overall straightness and parallelism of the rack meet requirements after installation, avoiding poor transmission or accelerated wear caused by installation errors.
Fit and Ream Rack Pin Holes and Install Locating Pins: After inspection, fit and ream the rack pin holes, then install locating pins to further fix the rack and prevent loosening or displacement during long-term use.
Processing Technology
Select appropriate materials based on the application requirements and performance characteristics of the rack. These materials possess excellent mechanical properties and wear resistance.
Use equipment like sawing machines or wire-cut electrical discharge machines to cut the raw materials into blanks with dimensions close to the final product, laying the foundation for subsequent processing.
As a key step, numerical control (NC) milling machines or specialized gear processing machines are used for tooth profile machining. During processing, the movement of the machine tool must be precisely controlled according to design parameters (e.g., module, number of teeth, helix angle) to machine the helical tooth profile that meets requirements. In the milling process, it is essential to select suitable milling cutters and cutting parameters (such as cutting speed and feed rate) to ensure the accuracy and surface quality of the tooth profile.
Depending on the material and application requirements, some racks may undergo heat treatment processes like quenching and tempering. These processes help improve the rack's hardness, strength, and wear resistance, thereby extending its service life.
Perform finish machining operations (such as surface grinding) on the racks that have undergone heat treatment or direct processing. This further enhances the smoothness and accuracy of the tooth surface, ensuring that the rack's dimensional tolerance and surface roughness meet standard requirements.
Use professional inspection equipment (e.g., coordinate measuring machines) to inspect the finished racks in terms of dimensional accuracy, tooth profile accuracy, and surface quality, ensuring they comply with the DIN standard and design requirements. After passing the inspection, the racks are assembled and prepared for use.
