Introduction to ball screw

Introduction to ball screw
Ball screws are ideal products for converting rotary motion into linear motion, or converting linear motion into rotary motion.
Ball screw is the most commonly used transmission component in tool machinery and precision machinery. Its main function is to convert rotational motion into linear motion or torque into axial repetitive force, while also possessing the characteristics of high precision, reversibility, and high efficiency. Due to its low frictional resistance, ball screws are widely used in various industrial equipment and precision instruments.
A ball screw consists of a screw, nut, steel ball, pre press plate, reverser, and dust collector. Its function is to convert rotational motion into linear motion, which is a further extension and development of the Ekm screw. The significance of this development is to transform bearings from sliding motion to rolling motion. In short, ball screws convert rotational motion into linear motion and linear motion into rotational motion.
Composition and classification of ball screws
A ball screw is composed of a screw shaft and a nut, with the nut consisting of a steel ball, pre press plate, reverser, dust collector, etc.
