Ball Screw

High transmission efficiency. Rolling friction of balls brings much higher efficiency than sliding lead screws with low driving torque. High positioning accuracy and repeat-positioning accuracy for precise displacement control. Smooth operation, no creeping at low speed; suitable for high-speed reciprocating motion. Preload can eliminate axial clearance to improve axial rigidity and realize zero-clearance transmission. Reversible transmission: rotary motion can be converted into linear motion, and vice versa.

I. How to read the model (general structure)

Series + Diameter Lead + Nut type + Precision + Preload + Length

1) Common series codes

  • SFU / SFS: External circulation, flange nut (most widely-used)
  • SFI: Internal circulation, compact & low-noise
  • SFE: High-speed large-lead type
  • BK / BF: Support units (BK: fixed-end; BF: floating-end)

2) Precision grades

  • C0~C5: Ground grade (machine tools / high-precision; C5 is common)
  • C7~C10: Rolled grade (automation / linear slides; C7 is most common)

3) Preload grades (for backlash elimination)

  • Z0: No preload (light-load application)
  • Z1: Light preload (general-purpose)
  • Z2: Medium preload (heavy-load / high-rigidity)

II. Quick selection guide

  1. Ordinary slides & automation modules: SFU series, C7 precision, Z1 light preload
  2. Machine tools & precision positioning: Ground C5, Z1 / Z2 preload
  3. Require fast motion: choose large lead (10, 20); Require high thrust: choose small lead (5)
  4. Support unit matching: BK fixed-end at one side, BF floating-end at the other to absorb thermal expansion.
