CNC Machining Rack And Pinion Precision Casting Service For Greenhouse Ventilation

CNC machining rack and pinion precision casting service for greenhouse ventilation

Product Overview :

Our CNC Machining Rack and Pinion Precision Casting Service delivers high-performance, durable gear systems designed specifically for automated greenhouse ventilation. Combining precision casting with CNC machining, we produce rack and pinion mechanisms that ensure smooth, reliable operation in greenhouse roof and side vent systems.

Product parameters:

1. Material Specifications

• Base Material:
  • Carbon Steel (AISI 1045, 4140) – High strength, cost-effective
  • Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316) – Superior corrosion resistance
  • Optional Coatings: Hot-dip galvanized, zinc-plated, or PTFE for harsh environments
• Hardness: HRC 40-50 (heat-treated for wear resistance)

2. Dimensional & Tolerance Standards

• Rack Gear:
  • Module: 1.0 – 6.0 (customizable)
  • Length: Up to 3000mm (standard), longer lengths on request
  • Straightness Tolerance: ≤0.1mm/m
• Pinion Gear:
  • Teeth: 10 – 50 (standard)
  • Bore Diameter: 6mm – 50mm (keyway/spline available)
  • Precision Grade: DIN 6-8 (AGMA 10-12 equivalent)
• Backlash: Adjustable (standard: <0.05mm)

3. Performance Parameters

• Max Load Capacity: 50–500 Nm (depends on gear ratio/material)
• Operating Speed: 10–200 RPM (optimized for low-speed solar actuators)
• Efficiency: ≥92% (helical), ≥88% (spur)
• Lifespan: >100,000 cycles (under proper maintenance)

Key Features & Benefits :

✔ High-Precision Manufacturing – Tight tolerances (±0.02mm) for seamless gear engagement and minimal backlash.
✔ Superior Material Options – Carbon steel (AISI 1045/4140), stainless steel (SS304/316), or galvanized coatings for corrosion resistance.
✔ Optimized for Greenhouse Use – Weather-resistant design withstands humidity, UV exposure, and temperature fluctuations.
✔ Customizable Designs – Tailored gear modules, lengths, and tooth profiles to fit specific ventilation systems.
✔ CNC-Machined Finish – Ensures smooth operation, reduced friction, and extended lifespan.

Applications :

• Motorized greenhouse roof vents

• Side ventilation automation

• Solar-powered vent openers

• Shade system drives
