Ball screw lubrication and using methods

1. Lithium base lubricants are used for Ballscrew lubrication.

2. Their viscosity are 30~140 cst (40℃) and ISO grades of 32~100.

3. Selecting:

3.1 High speed or Low temperature application: Using the lower viscosity lubricant.

3.2 High temperature, high load and low speed application: Using the higher viscosity lubricant.

The ball screw should be said to belong to a tight machine tool part, so when it is used, only by paying close attention to it in many aspects can it ensure its normal use and its service life. Here, let's take a look at the precautions for the use of ball screws.

First, before use, the lubrication state of the screw should be well checked, because if the ball screw is in a poor lubrication state, the function of the ball screw will be lost in a short time. It can also be said that the function is lost due to the serious occurrence of wear and tear.

Second, once the ball screw is coated with lubricating oil, it must be used directly, but it should be noted that there will be a lot of dust adsorbed on it during use, if the dust is not cleaned up in time If it is clean, it will cause other problems in use. At this time, the correct operation method is to use a clean numb, then use some white kerosene for scrubbing, and then apply lubricating oil on it for the next use. When reapplying lubricating oil, be careful not to mix the lubricating oil.

Third, in the process of use, no matter what kind of use problems occur, non-professional personnel must not disassemble the Lead Screw, because if the operation is improper, the simplest thing is that the dust will enter the lead screw, so that the The use accuracy of the ball screw is affected.

Fourth, once the reassembled lead screw has an assembly error, such a lead screw loses its use value. For the ball screw that has a problem, the correct way is to ask professional knowledge for maintenance.
