    Basic Parameters of Customized Ball Screw GIB0601.5

    Dimensional Parameters

    • Nominal Diameter: 6mm, referring to the outer diameter of the screw shaft. This specification belongs to the category of miniature ball screws and is suitable for small precision equipment with relatively compact installation space requirements.

    • Lead: 1.5mm, meaning that for each full rotation of the screw, the nut moves 1.5mm along the axial direction. The small lead enables high displacement accuracy, which can meet application scenarios with strict requirements for motion accuracy.

    • Thread Length: Determined according to customer customization requirements, and can adapt to the installation and working stroke requirements of different equipment.

    • Total Length of Screw: Also customizable according to customer needs, comprehensively considering factors such as the overall layout of the equipment, the moving range of the nut, and installation and fixation.

    Precision Parameters

    • Accuracy Grade: A variety of accuracy grades can be provided for customers to choose from, and common grades include C1, C3, C5, and C7 under the JIS standard. Grades C1 and C3 have extremely high accuracy and are suitable for high-end equipment with extremely high transmission accuracy requirements such as CNC machine tools, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, and optical instruments. Grades C5 and C7 can meet the accuracy requirements of general automation equipment and precision testing instruments.

    • Axial Clearance: According to the application requirements of customers, preloading can be achieved to different degrees to control the axial clearance. For example, in occasions requiring high-precision positioning and reverse transmission accuracy, the axial clearance can be controlled within 0 - 0.005mm, and the clearance can be eliminated by means of double-nut preloading to improve rigidity and transmission accuracy.

    Material Parameters

    • Screw Material: GCr15 bearing steel is commonly used. After heat treatment, the hardness can reach HRC60 - 62, which has high strength, high wear resistance, and good dimensional stability, and can ensure the accuracy and reliability of the screw during long-term use. Stainless steel materials (such as 9Cr18) can also be selected according to customer requirements, with a hardness of HRC55 - 58, suitable for special environments requiring corrosion resistance, such as medical and food processing industries.

    • Nut Material: Generally, high-quality alloy steel matched with the screw is used, and appropriate surface treatment is carried out to improve the matching performance and wear resistance with the balls. At the same time, customers can also specify special materials or surface treatment processes, such as hard chrome plating to further improve the wear resistance and rust resistance of the nut.

    Mechanical Performance Parameters

    • Rated Dynamic Load: Under certain service life conditions, the maximum dynamic load that the screw pair can withstand. With common working conditions and material configurations, the rated dynamic load of the GIB0601.5 ball screw varies according to the actual design and manufacturing process, and can generally meet the load requirements of small precision equipment during normal operation. The specific value can be optimized according to the customer's load, operating speed and other requirements.

    • Rated Static Load: When the screw pair is in a stationary or low-speed operation state, the maximum load it can withstand. A reasonable rated static load design can ensure the safety and reliability of the screw in situations such as equipment start-stop and sudden overload.

    Circulation and Structural Parameters

    • Circulation Mode: The internal circulation mode with a floating reverser is adopted. This circulation mode has a compact structure, and the balls move smoothly during the circulation process, which can effectively reduce the impact and noise of the balls and improve the operation stability and service life of the screw pair. If customers have special requirements, other circulation modes such as external circulation can also be customized.

    • Nut Structure: It is a nut with trunnion. The trunnion structure is convenient for the installation and fixation of the nut, and can realize a certain angle of swing during installation to compensate for installation errors. At the same time, nuts and trunnion structures of different shapes and sizes can be customized according to the equipment installation interface and space layout of customers.

    Future Trends

    Development towards Higher Precision and Performance

    With the continuous development of high-end manufacturing industries such as semiconductors and aerospace, the requirements for the precision and performance of ball screws will continue to increase. In the future, the customized ball screw GIB0601.5 will move towards nanometer-level precision. By optimizing manufacturing processes (such as ultra-precision grinding, lapping, etc.), improving material performance (developing new high-performance alloy materials), and adopting more advanced detection methods (such as laser interferometry, coordinate measuring, etc.), the lead error will be further reduced, the axial and radial accuracy will be improved, and at the same time, its dynamic response performance and anti-fatigue strength will be enhanced.

    Intelligent and Integrated Trend

    In order to meet the development needs of Industry 4.0 and intelligent manufacturing, the GIB0601.5 ball screw will integrate more intelligent functions. For example, built-in sensors can monitor the temperature, vibration, wear and other state parameters of the screw in real time, and transmit the data to the equipment control system through the Internet of Things technology to realize real-time monitoring and fault early warning of the screw's operating state, which is convenient for timely maintenance and adjustment and improves the reliability and production efficiency of the equipment. In addition, it may also be integrated with motors, encoders and other components to form an integrated transmission module, reducing installation and debugging time and system complexity.

    Green Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development

    Under the global background of advocating green environmental protection, more attention will be paid to environmental protection and sustainability in the production and manufacturing of ball screws. On the one hand, green manufacturing processes are adopted to reduce energy consumption and pollutant emissions in the production process, such as dry cutting and low-temperature processing technologies; on the other hand, product design is optimized to improve material utilization, extend product service life, and reduce the whole-life cycle cost of products. At the same time, the recycling and reuse of waste ball screws will also become an important direction for future development.

    Deepening Customization Needs and Quick Response

    With the personalized and differentiated development of products in various industries, the demand for customized ball screws will continue to increase and become more diversified and complex. In the future, enterprises need to have stronger customized research and development and production capabilities, use advanced digital design tools (such as CAD, CAE) to quickly respond to customer needs, and realize the whole-process customized service from product design, manufacturing to delivery, shorten the product research and development cycle, and improve customer satisfaction.
