Plastic Rack and Pinion
To meet the challenges posed by real-world operating conditions, we have designed and delivered many rack and pinion systems based on our Power-Core polymers. Typically, these gears consist of Intech Power-Core gears with stainless steel cores and stainless steel racks, although some applications are better off with a Power-Core rack and stainless steel pinion.
Either way, we have found five key advantages to using polymers in rack and pinion applications:
Eliminate lubrication
Eliminating lubricants eliminates a major source of contamination in sensitive applications such as packaging, pharmaceutical, semiconductor or food processing.
Extends wear life
Users have also allowed us to create some design features that further extend wear life, such as a pitch line control feature that prevents pinion bottoming.
Prevent corrosion
Traditional rack and pinion designs with metal gears are prone to rust and corrosion, especially in washdown applications. As a polymer, Power-Core does not corrode at all.
Keep dimensionally stable
Due to the physical properties of its base polymer, Power-Core does not undergo the changes in dimensional and tensile properties that affect traditional polymers when exposed to moisture, chemicals or high temperatures.
Improve motor control
The Power-Core produces a rack and pinion that runs smoothly and quietly as the rack moves back and forth, about 6 dBa less noise than all meal components.

What is a Rack and Pinion?
A rack and pinion is used to convert rotary motion into linear motion. The rack has straight teeth cut into one face of a square or round rod and runs with a pinion, which is a small cylindrical gear that meshes with the rack. The general rack and pinion are collectively referred to as “rack and pinion”. There are many ways to use gears.
Rack and Pinion Mechanism Design and Application Examples
Gears transmit power by rotating one gear to move the gear that meshes with it. On the other hand, in rack and pinion, a combination of a rack in the form of a gear stretched like a rod and a small-diameter gear (pinion) converts rotational motion into linear motion to transmit power. For example, where the pinion is stationary and the rack is moving, the pinion is usually connected to the output shaft of the motor. The driven side of the frame is supported by a separate machine element structure. The repetitive rotational motion of the pinion produces the repetitive back and forth motion of the rack.
