A History of Success
Joseph H. Nook, Jr. founded Nook Industries, Inc. in 1969 with the primary goal of stocking and machining ball screws manufactured by Saginaw Steering Gear. This early role as a master distributor for Saginaw enabled Nook and ultimately Helix Linear Technologies to gain experience and technical expertise in the world of linear motion.
Since then, the company has grown to engineer, design and manufacture multiple major product lines comprising over 10,000 configurable products. With core manufacturing excellence including ball screw assemblies, acme screw assemblies, planetary roller screws, worm gear screw jacks, electric cylinder actuators, linear bearings, shafting, slide systems, end bearing supports and precision end machining for inch and metric markets, Helix was created to better serve the expanding and evolving customer-driven market for precision linear motion products with a focus on precision lead screw technology.
