Flexible Gear Rack

Flexible plastic equipment racks in 0.8 Mod (32DP) pitch. These racks can offer an easy to install rotational drive as high as approx 270 degrees for example on camera focus bands. They also offer an economical answer where a huge gear is necessary or a longer stretch (up to 2 metres) of linear movement is desired. These racks are compatible with our 0.8 Mod and 32 DP pitch Spur Gears.
EVER-POWER stock racks are created for high precision linear motion applications. We offer a large selection of racks which range from module 0.5 to 10 and lengths from 100 to 2000 mm.
Hardened Floor Racks (MRGF – MRGFD) : Has the highest power and precision in the EVER-POWER standard rack series. Bolt holes can be remachined as carburizing can be applied only within the tooth area. J Series items are also available.

Surface Helical Racks (KRHG – KRHGF – KRHGFD) : Excellent items with high precision and strength, and low sound and abrasion characteristics.
Metal Helical Racks (SRH – SRHF – SRHFD) : Effective in reducing noise and vibration because of larger contact ratio of helical gears.
Molded Flexible Racks (DR) : Found in applications due to its flexibility, where metal racks do no possess this attribute. Pinions and accessories are also available.
Molded Versatile Rack Clamps (SRS) : Used to secure Molded Versatile Racks.
Molded Flexible Rack Pinions (SSDR) : Spur pinions utilized for molded versatile racks.
Flexible Rack Information Rails (ARL) : Guide Rails for Molder Versatile Racks.
We offer as standard an array of Racks in Metric and Imperial sizes. Spur Racks are available in Steel (En8) and up to 2 metres in length. Stainless Steel and Delrin (Plastic-type) Racks are created with Spur and Helical tooth forms, square and round sections up to 400mm in length. Alternative materials are available on demand. Moulded Hostaform Racks can be found to offer an economical alternative where less torque is required.
Variable stiffness can enhance the capability of human-robot interacting. Based on the system of a flexible rack and equipment, a rotational joint actuator called vsaFGR is certainly proposed to modify the joint stiffness. The versatile gear rack could be regarded as a mixture of a nonlinear elastic element and a linear adjusting system, providing advantages of compactness. The joint stiffness is in the number of 217-3527 N.m/rad, in fact it is inversely proportional to the 4th-purchase of the gear displacement, and almost independent from the joint angular deflection, providing benefits of quick stiffness regulation in a short displacement of 20 mm. The gear displacement with regards to the flexible gear rack is certainly perpendicular to the joint loading drive, so the power required for stiffness regulating is as low as 14.4 W, providing advantages of energy conservation. The high compactness, great stiffness range and low power price of vsaFGR are proved by simulations and experiments.
