AXYZ International has recently developed a new helical rack and pinion drive system, which is available as an option on all AXYZ Series machines. The helical rack and pinion drive system is designed to provide high speed performance, greater accuracy, smoother cutting and quieter running, says the company. The system will allow higher acceleration and feed rates to be used where appropriate, subject to the machine specification and local safety regulations, says the company, and the design of these drives ensures that at all times there are multiple gear teeth engaged, which results in reduced wear and extended life of the system, due to a distribution of the load over several gear teeth.
