  • Is that a single or a double nut ball screw?
    Inconsistent ball-screw definitions can confuse engineers. This conventional double nut has a split spacer that can be removed for grinding to adjust the preload. Fitting keys prevent the nuts from turning relative to each other. The size of the nuts, mainly the outer diameters, keeps them aligned

    the screw shaft that can support all applied forces. For Acme screws, the material used to make the nut significantly affects thrust. For example, on a 1-in.-diameter Acme screw with a 0.125-in. lead, a resin nut may have an operating load rating of 625 lb, as compared to 1,250 lb for a bronze nut. In ball
  • Screw Conveyors and Auger Conveyors
    Screw conveyors or auger conveyors are of simple, relatively low cost construction. A screw conveyor consists of a helical flight fastened around a rigid pipe or solid shaft, mounted within a tubular or U-shaped trough. As the screw rotates, material heaps up in front of the advancing flight

    and rotate the shaft. Readings from the nut (ground) OD reveal how concentric the ball tracks are. The same method should be used for aligning a screw with a machine axis. Indicating off the nut rather than the OD of the screw eliminates concentricity errors the shaft OS might have. The bearing journal
