Ball screw drive systems are pivotal in modern machine tools, providing the precise conversion of rotary motion into linear movement. Their high stiffness and efficiency render them essential in ...

The AGK ball-screw drive from Bosch Rexroth Corp., Charlotte, N.C., combines a rigid aluminum housing, screw supports, bearings that reduce screw whip, and a high-performance ball screw to provide up ...

When designing drive systems, ball screws are still the most widely used components among designers due to their high performance and the associated energy efficiency. To properly size a ball screw ...

Translating rotary motion to linear motion is a basic part of mechatronic design. Take a look at the nearest 3D-printer or CNC router — at least the Cartesian variety — and you’ll see some mechanism ...
