Ball Screw and Linear AC Servo Actuator

High-Precision Ball Screw and Linear AC Servo Actuator System for Industrial Automation

This advanced mechanical solution integrates a ball screw mechanism with a linear AC servo actuator to deliver exceptional performance in motion control applications. Designed for industries demanding accuracy, speed, and durability, this system transforms rotational input into precise linear movement while maintaining high efficiency and minimal wear over time. Whether used in precision manufacturing or heavy-duty automation, the combination of these two components ensures reliable operation under varying conditions.

Key features include a robust stainless steel housing, customizable stroke lengths from 30mm to 15 meters, and thrust capabilities ranging from 10N up to 150kN (1kg–15 metric tons). With positioning accuracy as fine as ±0.02mm and travel speeds reaching 1 meter per second, this system supports both rapid motion and ultra-fine adjustments—ideal for tasks requiring micro-level control. The drive options are flexible, accommodating various motor types, and the unit offers an IP65 protection rating for dust and water resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments.

The ball screw component is available in two primary forms: precision-ground and rolled versions, each offering different trade-offs between cost, surface finish, and load capacity. Precision-ground screws provide superior accuracy and smoothness, often preferred in semiconductor fabrication and medical devices. Rolled ball screws offer excellent strength-to-weight ratios and are commonly used in robotics and CNC machinery. Paired with a linear AC servo actuator, which delivers high torque density, fast acceleration, and stable velocity control, the entire assembly achieves seamless integration with modern control systems like PLCs and industrial PCs.

Applications span across multiple sectors including machine tools, automated guided vehicles, packaging equipment, semiconductor production lines, surgical robots, and aerospace actuators. Its versatility allows engineers to implement it in either direct-drive configurations or traditional screw-driven setups, depending on the required force, speed, and space constraints. Customization services are available for stroke length, mounting style, feedback sensors, and environmental ratings to meet specific project requirements.

Users consistently report improved repeatability, reduced maintenance needs, and enhanced productivity when replacing older hydraulic or stepper motor-based solutions. Many customers highlight the system’s ability to maintain consistent performance over long operating hours without significant degradation—a testament to its engineering quality and materials selection.

Frequently asked questions include inquiries about compatibility with existing automation infrastructure, expected lifespan under continuous use, and support for custom programming interfaces. Most users find that the modular design simplifies integration, while the availability of technical documentation and remote diagnostics helps reduce downtime. For those seeking a durable, accurate, and scalable motion solution, this ball screw and linear AC servo actuator combination represents a future-proof investment in industrial automation technology.
