As ballscrews are an indispensable element in today's machinery and apparatus construction, Steinmeyer has developed a wide program of standard ballscrews for various purposes.

General Properties

Ballscrews provide power transmission from rotational to linear motion, or vice versa. Their main properties are high efficiency, durability and high precision. Steinmeyer has improved the basic design by introducing many detailed solutions to improve performance of this product. Modern industrial requirements are increased speeds, reliability and precision along with better economics, detailed design has changed reasonably. In general, every ballscrew shows an efficiency of approx. 90%, due to rolling ball contact between screw and nut. The demands today however, are more complex than simply transforming a rotational movement into a linear movement.
