In the transmission industry, the ball screw is an indispensable mechanical component. Due to its low friction resistance, ball screw is widely used in CNC equipment. In CNC router machines and laser cutting machines, ball screws are also indispensable machine parts.
In the transmission industry, the ball screw is an indispensable mechanical component. Its main function is to convert rotary motion into linear motion. Due to its low friction resistance, ball screws are widely used in various industrial equipment and precision instruments. In
CNC router machines and laser cutting machines, ball screws are also indispensable machine parts.
Application of Ball Screw in CNC Router Machine
Ball screws are usually used for the three axes of a small CNC router or the Z axis of a large size CNC router. In the small CNC machines, because the X-axis and Y-axis have a short movement stroke, ball screws are usually used for the three axes. In a large-size CNC machines, because there is a larger processing area, the X-axis and Y-axis have a longer running stroke. At this time, the X-axis and Y-axis are driven by rack and pinion, and the Z-axis is driven by screw.
What are the advantages of ball screw in CNC Router?
High Efficiency – Ball screws typically operate at a minimum of 90 percent efficiency, which makes them an optimal choice in converting rotary motion into precision linear motion.
Load Capabilities – A part of what makes ball screws versatile in so many industries is their ability to carry remarkably heavy loads at fast, efficient speeds.
Although the ball screw drive has many advantages, different machines have great differences in application fields and performance, so different
CNC engraving equipment needs to choose the appropriate transmission mode according to their own characteristics.
