Detailed simulation of ball screws

At first glance, ball screws appear to be simple components. However, the relatively high number of different geometric parameters have a complex effect on service life, rigidity, smooth running and heat generation.

With the help of special FE simulation models, we can reliably calculate these complex relationships in the ball screw drive.

It is not unusual for us to be able to increase the service life of ball screws many times over. We optimize the position of the ball chains, contact angle, number of balls, nut geometry and much more.
