What are ball screws?
A ball screw converts rotary motion into linear motion and is used in applications requiring stable and precise movement with high accuracy. Ball screws are widely used in the automotive industry, machine tools, assembly equipment, and more.
To meet specific demands for speed, force, and lifespan, ball screws are available in various diameters and lead pitches. A properly optimized and maintained ball screw can last for many years. To preserve performance, the screw should be protected from contaminants and lubricated regularly.
