The Top Five Benefits of PTFE Coating Your Acme Screw
If you're an engineer, you already know how vital lubrication is to the long-term performance and reliability of lead screw assemblies. Lubrication repels water, provides corrosion resistance, and l
There are many reasons why acme screws are the preferred choice when it comes to linear motion applications. The popular trapezoidal screw with a 29-degree thread angle, which works to convert rotary
Acme screws, which convert rotary into linear motion, are quickly becoming the preferred choice for design engineers among numerous motion control applications for a multitude of reasons. Acme screws
The Importance of Precision Acme Screws in Medical Devices
The medical field is advancing at an unprecedented rate. One of the keys to this rapid advancement is the medical industry's increasing use of technology. One of the unheralded components doing the m
The Importance of Acme Screws for Linear Motion Innovation
Lead screw assemblies convert rotary motion into linear motion by turning the lead screw or the lead screw nut. One of the most popular types of lead screws uses the Acme thread form, which typically
Ball Screw and Lead Screw End Mounts - aka Ezze-Mounts!
This week, we've had a few questions regarding mounting options for Helix ball screw and lead screw assemblies, so we thought we would take a few moments and do a little write-up about our Ezze-Mount
Sometimes the best things come in small packages.
Take a miniature linear actuator, for instance. Simply put, it is a device that creates a linear or straight motion. Its compact size allows it to fit
The Unique Engineering Characteristics of a Precision Acme Screw
Do you have a mechanical design project in the works? If yes, you'll likely need to consider a linear motion control solution. While various lead screws are available for use in mechanical design, A
How Rail Car Doors and Lead Screws Keep Commuters Safe
Rail car door systems are historically one of the most complex, inconsistently performing, and potentially hazardous components in rail transit systems worldwide. Yet safety is of utmost importance wh
Ensuring optimal performance of acme screws and other types of lead screw assemblies often requires pairing the right screw and nut materials with the most suitable lubricant for a particular job. A
How Lead Screws Enable World-Class Rail Car Design
Globally, the build-out of rail car systems is projected to grow strong well into the foreseeable future. The design of rail car components has seen similar steady movement. Enhanced design approaches
Until recently, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems were traditionally designed with overcapacity to accommodate various building demands. However, with the rise of green buildi
