Rack and Pinion Gear Sets

Rack and pinion systems convert rotary to linear motion and can also convert linear motion to rotary. There are many mounting methods and anti-backlash versions available in inch and metric pitches. Gear racks can also be used with linear slides.  Nordex will assistance in choosing the best System for your application.

Anti-Backlash Gears

Anti-Backlash Gears by Nordex Inc.

Anti-backlash gears are suited for precision applications where a high degree of accuracy is required. They are also used when the drive axis must reverse direction while maintaining a high degree of repeatability. These are available in compact and miniature compact designs. Standard and Custom styles available in both our Inch and Metric series. See the video Here!

Miniature Clutches

Miniature Clutches by Nordex

Spring-wrapped type, friction, particle and clutch-brake combinations to suit any requirement, some may be used as a friction device.

There is no single clutch that will suit all applications.

Nordex Engineers are available to assist you in reviewing all factors to determine which clutch is best suited for your application.

Custom Shafts

Custom Shafts by Nordex, Inc.

Shafts are seldom a simple round cylinder.

Special features on shafting is required for many applications.

Retaining ring grooves, flats, threaded/tapped ends, drilled holes and lubrication features.

“D” shaped shafts are an option to mount a Pulley using a Set-Screw.  Keyways are used to transfer torque on high powered mechanisms.

Ratchets & Pawls

A mechanical device that allows continuous linear or rotary motion in one direction.

The pawl engages the teeth and prevents motion in the opposite direction. The maximum amount of reverse motion is limited to the distance between the teeth.

These are commonly used in machinery, tools and can function as a safety device.

Pinion and Gear

Pinion and Gear by Nordex

These matched gears are used to rotate shafts or axis in many applications such as Machinery, Robotics, Medical & Dental. High Precision & Anti-Backlash designs available when a high degree of accuracy and repeatability is required. Standard or custom sizes, various materials and ratios, Compact and Miniature designs offered in inch and metric sizes.

Cluster Gears

Drive two different mechanisms at the same time in the same machine. The cluster may consist of 2 gears, a gear and a pulley, 2 pulleys, or a Sprocket and a pulley.
Used in medical, office, industrial and packaging equipment. Allows for compact design, inch and metric sizes can be used on the same shaft.

Integral Pulley Assembly

This flanged pulley, hub and shaft assembly is used in Office equipment, Robotics, Packaging Industry and Diagnostic Equipment.

Power is transmitted to another axis at required speed ratios according to the application.

Other style options are gear, sprocket, spline or any combination. Bearings can also be incorporated.

The Assembly can be exposed or enclosed depending on material of choice.
