Ball splines can be divided into two types: flange type SLF and flange free SLT. Due to the size of the shaft diameter, the contact path of the steel ball can be further divided into 2 grooves 180 ° SLF 6-13 and 4 grooves 120 ° SLF 16-50. In addition, a hollow shaft center is also available for selection.
high load capacity
The rolling groove of the ball is precision ground and formed, and adopts Goethe type 40 degree angular contact. Due to the large contact angle, it has a large load capacity in both radial and torque directions.
The clearance in the rotation direction is zero
By using 2-3 relative ball arrays with a contact angle of 40 °, the spline shaft is combined with the shaft sleeve, and the clearance in the rotation direction can be zero by adjusting the preload method.
Sensitivity of Height
Due to the special design of the steel ball eating point, in addition to high rigidity, it is more sensitive and can reduce energy waste.
High rigidity
Due to the large contact angle, it has high rigidity and can apply appropriate preload depending on the situation, thus achieving high torque rigidity and moment rigidity.
Easy assembly
Due to the special design, even if the spline shaft sleeve is detached from the spline shaft, the ball will not fall off. Therefore, assembly, maintenance, and inspection are all easy to carry out.
