Roller Screws
Roller screws for linear-actuation applications requiring higher load capacities and higher speeds in smaller design envelopes can be used for factory automation, instrumentation, spot welding, injection molding, dispensing devices, machine tools and heavy-duty press applications. The rollers re-circulate after each revolution within the nut, which allows for fine-lead threads as small as 0.8 mm. Shaft diameters range 8-270 mm and leads range 0.8-42 mm.
