Rack and pinion transmission is a widely used transmission mechanism. This mechanism can not only convert rotational motion into linear motion, but also convert linear motion into rotational motion. It can also be combined with other transmission mechanisms to complete complex functions.

The rack and pinion is a transmission component that can convert rotational motion into linear motion. It consists of a "pinion" with teeth distributed in a circle and a "rack" with teeth distributed in a strip shape. When a rotational driving force is applied to the "pinion", the "pinion" and the "rack" can produce relative motion.
Ordinary gear racks use involute tooth shapes. As a necessary condition for mutual meshing, the "tooth backlash" (referred to as "backlash") must be set from the design stage. If used on precision equipment, designers are taboo. In order to improve the accuracy of the equipment, try to use "low backlash" or "zero backlash" transmission components in the design.

1. Packaging machinery: Gear racks are used to control the conveying, positioning and cutting of packaging materials. They ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the packaging process‌.
2. Automated production line: Gear racks are often used in conveyor belts, elevators and other equipment to achieve precise displacement control. They can ensure the accurate movement of items on the production line and improve production efficiency‌.
3. Heavy machinery: In heavy machinery such as cranes and excavators, racks and pinions are widely used in key parts such as lifting systems and transmission systems. They can withstand huge loads and ensure the stable operation of mechanical equipment.
4. CNC lathe: The gear rack is a key component to achieve high-precision movement of the workbench. By cooperating with the motor, they can ensure that the machine tool maintains extremely high precision and stability during the machining process.
