High-Speed Ball Screws have elastic spacers.
Mechanical Components and Assemblies

High-Speed Ball Screws have elastic spacers.

With design that avoids inter-ball friction and torque build-up at slow speeds, UltraSpeed KES ball nut incorporates spacers between balls and plastic tubes in recirculating channels. It also features dual ball return systems with deflectors that guide balls in tangential direction, away from shaft and into return channels integrated inside nut body. With dn rating of 160,000, product is capable...

Ball Screws offer dynamic ratings up to 1 mil N.

UltraThrust Precision Ground Ball Screws are offered in 50 x 20, 63 x 20, 63 x 30, 80 x 20, 80 x 40, and 100 x 20 mm sizes, all with 15 mm load carrying balls. UltraThrust 63 x 20 mm ball screw offers dynamic capacity of 430 kN, compared with 179 kN for standard series 1416 ball nut, which uses 11 mm balls. UltraThrust ball screws are suited for very large transfer line modules or to replace...

Ball Screws feature elastic spacer technology.
Mechanical Components and Assemblies

Ball Screws feature elastic spacer technology.

Ball Screws use elastic spacers to separate recirculating balls inside nut, allowing them to achieve extremely fine and slow motion consistently. When nut is fully assembled, slight compression of each elastic spacer between 2 adjacent balls ensures sustained close guidance during recirculation inside nut. Hole in middle of spacer allows adjacent balls to touch in event of jamming, preventing...

Double Nut Design stops errors caused by spacers.

UNILOCK double nut design for large precision ground ball screws eliminates need for spacers or connecting hardware. Its method also eliminates backlash by using two nuts preloaded against each other and then locked using integral bonding system. With minimal number of parts, double nut eliminates angular errors in assembly of two nuts. UNILOCK system is available for ball screw diameters from 16...
