REDEX

The stiffness of Rack-and-Pinion axis Drive, the key factor for the world class machine-tools builders

To keep total control on their drives systems is one of the most critical points to ensure the performance of the most modern machine tools at their highest level. These drives, either linear or rotary, are the ones which make possible to position the tool and/or the workpieces quickly, accurately, and under control. The mechanisms which compose these systems of drive are generally classified according to their capacities of speed and acceleration, to the power which they are able to transmit, to their precision of movement, to their stiffness, their dimensions, and their reliability.
