Ballscrews designed for high speed machine tools.
UltraSpeed series ball screws, available in 16 to 63 mm dia, enable speed ratings to dN = 160,000. With lead to diameter ratios from 0.5:1 to 1:1, linear velocities of 4,000 ipm are possible at acceleration of 2 g and higher. Ball return system uses precision ball deflectors to guide balls into return channel spanning whole nut length. Two-piece deflectors, precision milled from steel, minimize...

Miniature Ball Screw includes spring-preloaded double nut.
Series 1510 compensates for torque variations due to inaccuracies in ground thread. Diameters range from 3 to 16 mm with pitch down to 0.5 mm. Standard nut body is cylindrical with attaching thread. Applications include semiconductor production machines, inspection equipment, microscope stages, and miniature robotics. Series 1530 offers rolled thread for less demanding positioning applications....

Ball Screw Wiper protects against contaminants.
Combination Wiper includes friction type finger wiper in front of felt wiper. Dual wiper keeps contaminants from entering ball nut, while simultaneously lubricating ball screw. Felt doubles as lubricant reservoir, maintaining constant thin film of oil on screw thread as ball nut moves. Because minimal amount of oil is deposited on thread, ball screw oil consumption is reduced by 75%. Wiper is...
