How does the ball screw work?

Ball screws work in a similar way to traditional screws, but the significant advantage of using a ball screw is that it uses ball bearings running in spiral channels to transfer loads. In high precision applications, it is often necessary to convert the rotary motion of the motor into the linear motion of the payload. One w

About Ball Screws

Ball screw assemblies consist of a screw that is driven by a rotary motor, a ball nut with recirculating ball bearings that translates along the screw to convert rotary motion into linear motion via attachment to a carriage, and is supported by thrust or angular contact bearings on one or both ends of the ball screw to support axial and radial loads.

How do we solve the problem of the ball screw failing as an important part of the precision engraving machine?

The ball screw of the CNC engraving machine is composed of a screw, a nut and a ball. It converts the rotary motion into a linear motion, or converts the linear motion into an ideal transmission element for a rotary motion! Due to the small frictional resistance, ball screws are commonly used in various industrial equipment and precision instruments. However, there are still some problems encountered in use. Failure to deal with them will cause malfunctions, which will affect the precision of the engraving mac

The difference between a ball screw lift and a trapezoidal screw lift

Ball screw lifts and trapezoidal screw lifts are not interchangeable in many cases and always require a trade-off between accuracy, stiffness and load capacity. There is not necessarily a perfect correspondence between specifications and performance. The working principle of the ball screw: According to the national standard GB/T17587.3-1998 and application examples, the ball screw (currently has replaced the trape

Lubrication of Linear guide

Linear guide description: Linear motion units based on block and rail systems. The block moves back and forth along the track. In most cases, there are recirculating balls that are moved with linear guides. Unlike ball screws, which convert rotary motion to linear, balls rotate in a linear direction. Some linear guides can be a mix of different types of linear bearings, such as ball screws or lead screws.
