- When to choose ACME lead screws?ACME screw drives are best suited for low-precision applications with low speed and duty cycles.The ACME screw has a 29 degree included angle.Lead Screw January 17, 2023
- How does contact angle affect the performance of linear bearings?Lead screws are generally considered a less expensive alternative to ball screws-suitable only for lightweight applications where accuracy requirements are lower.Linear Guideway February 09, 2023
- Can lead screws outperform ball screws?Lead screws are generally considered a less expensive alternative to ball screws-suitable only for lightweight applications where accuracy requirements are lower.Lead Screw November 09, 2022
- What are the common platings and coatings in linear motion systems?What are the common platings and coatings in linear motion systems?Application January 11, 2023
- When to use cross roller guides?When applications require linear guides with high load capacity,high stiffness and good travel accuracy,the range of applicable products is usually narrowed down to two designs:recirculating linear guides and crossed roller guides.Ball Screw February 06, 2023
- What are the advantages of ACME lead screw with PTFE coating?1.Low coefficient of friction:In terms of friction coefficient,the PTFE coated lead screw has a static coefficient of 0.15,which helps to extend the life of the lead screw assembly and product.Lead Screw January 13, 2023
- Why are cages used in crossed roller guides?Cross roller guides are non-recirculating linear bearings,the rollers are oriented in a "criss-cross" mode(each roller rotates 90 degrees relative to the one next to it)and move between two parallel guides with V-shaped grooves.Ball Screw February 03, 2023
- What is the preload of the ball screw?Ball screw assemblies are delicate components.Ball Screw October 14, 2022
- What are ACME screws and Trapezoidal Screws?Lead screw refers only to a powered screw that relies on the sliding motion between the nut and the screw shaft.There are two variations of the lead screw:the screw with square thread and trapezoidal thread.Lead Screw February 02, 2023
- What is the PEEK material used in lead nut?PEEK(polyetheretherketone)is a high-performance engineering plastic with outstanding resistance to harsh chemicals,and excellent mechanical strength and dimensional stability.It offers hydrolysis resistance to steam,water,and sea water.PEEK has the ability to maintain stiffness at high temperatures and is suitable for continuous use at temperatures up to 338°F(170°C).Lead Screw December 21, 2022
