What Are The Uses of Ball Screw?

The most basic application of ball screw is to convert the rotating motion of the motor into linear motion efficiently. With the characteristics of high precision, high efficiency and low friction, ball screw also plays a key role in many fields.

1. Ball screws, renowned for their high-precision transmission capabilities, are widely used in equipment requiring precise positioning control such as CNC machine tools, printers, and automated assembly lines. Their low-noise operation and extended lifespan further enable their extensive application in medical devices and precision measurement instruments. When integrated with motors and control systems, ball screws enable automated operations, finding broad applications in robotics and automated production lines.
