Is Roller Screw Technology Still Underappreciated?
Even though the very first patent for a roller screw was granted in 1949, why is roller screw technology a less recognised option than other mechanisms for the conversion of rotary torque into linear motion? When designers consider the options for controlled linear motio...Read more -
Ball Screws Principle of Operation
A. The Ball Screw Assembly The ball screw assembly consists of a screw and a nut, each with matching helical grooves, and balls which roll between these grooves providing the only contact between the nut and the screw. As the screw or nut rotates, the balls are deflected...Read more -
HUMANOID ROBOTS OPEN UP GROTH CEILING
Ball screws are widely used in high-end machine tools, aerospace, robots, electric vehicles, 3C equipment and other fields. CNC machine tools are the most important users of rolling components, accounting for 54.3% of the downstream ap...Read more -
Difference Between Geared Motor and Electric Actuator?
A geared motor is an integration of a gear box and an electric motor. This integrated body can also be usually referred to as a gear motor or gear box. Usually by the professional gear motor production factory, the integrated assembly ...Read more -
What is the difference between a lead screw and a ball screw?
Ball screw VS Lead Screw The ball screw consists of a screw and nut with matching grooves and ball bearings that move between them. Its function is to convert rotary motion into linear motion or ...Read more -
ANOTHER LOOK AT THE TESLA ROBOT: THE PLANETARY ROLLER SCREW
Tesla’s humanoid robot Optimus uses 1:14 planetary roller screws. At Tesla AI Day on October 1, the humanoid Optimus prototype used planetary roller screws and harmonic reducers as an optional linear joint solution. According to the rendering on the official website, an Optimus prototype u...Read more -

HOW TO IMPROVE THE MICROSTEPPING ACCURACY OF STEPPER MOTORS
Stepper motors are often used for positioning because they are cost-effective, easy to drive, and can be used in open-loop systems-that is, such motors do not require position feedback as servo motors do. Stepper motors can be used in small industrial machines such as laser engravers, 3D printers...Read more
