Straight-toothed gear racks and helical gear racks are available in standard industrial sizes from module 2 to module 12. The material, hardness, and accuracy determine the respective load.
Selecting the right toothed rack depends on specific application needs, including expected load and environmental conditions.
Expert consultation can help optimize the lifespan and performance of these components, thereby minimizing downtime and maximizing efficiency in drive systems.
Less joints. More accuracy, durability and convenience.
The modularity of our racks allows a high level of customization that means a saving in terms of purchase, installation and maintenance costs.

SCHNEEBERGER offers its customers unparalleled competance: Modern and flexible machinery, the highest quality standards
Gear racks convert rotary motion into precise linear motion via a pinion, the economic drive element for long strokes over 2 m. SCHNEEBERGER gear racks are available from module 2 to 20, milled or ground, in accuracy classes up to Q4 (fp 0.003 mm), in single pieces to 3000 mm. Typical applications: machine tool gantries, handling portals, laser cutting heads and heavy-load automation axes.
SCHNEEBERGER offers a wide range of gear racks, including straight-toothed gear racks are available in standard industrial sizes from module 2 to module 12, Helical-toothed gear racks are available in typical industry dimensions from module 2 to module 12, and customized gear racks, which can be customized with different materials and up to module 20 and 3000mm.
SCHNEEBERGER gear racks excel in efficiency and durability, making them perfect for applications with significant axial forces. They maintain consistent rigidity throughout their length and prove cost-effective for strokes over 2 meters. We offer a range of sizes in both straight and helical toothed gear racks, and you have flexibility in material and hardening options to match your load specifications. Our product line includes standard gear racks from module 2 to module 12 and customizable choices up to module 20, with lengths of up to 3000 mm. This allows you to customize your gear rack to suit your unique requirements.
Proper lubrication is crucial for maintaining the functionality and longevity of gear racks. It protects against wear, corrosion, and reduces friction, ensuring smooth operation. We recommend using lubrication greases within the NLGI 00 to NLGI 0 range, such as Klüber Microlube GB 0, and regularly applying them to the drive pinion or gear rack with a felt pinion. Inadequate lubrication can significantly shorten the service life of the drive system, so it's essential to ensure the machine is adequately lubricated.
At SCHNEEBERGER, we uphold a commitment to quality throughout our manufacturing process. Our gear racks are manufactured on modern machine tools, and both induction and through hardening are performed in-house to maintain quality control. We are proud to be ISO 9001 certified across all our production sites.
Each step of the production process is subject to self-inspection by our skilled machine operators. If needed, we compile a measurement report to ensure the quality of the gear rack. Our tooth rack profiles adhere to DIN 867 standards, and the tolerances for accuracy classes are in line with DIN 3962, 3963, and 3967.
To further guarantee quality, our tooth racks undergo measurement using CNC measuring machines. A notable feature of SCHNEEBERGER standard tooth racks is the inclusion of a tip chamfer, which minimizes the risk of injury.
Our unwavering goal is to provide the best products and services to industrial companies, recognizing that this is the key to our customers' success.
