Ball screw support seats are key components in mechanical transmission systems, especially in CNC machine tools, automation equipment and precision machinery.
They not only ensure the stable operation of the ball screw, but also improve the accuracy and reliability of the entire transmission system.
This article will introduce the fixed side (K end) and support side (F end) of the ball screw support seat in detail, and focus on the characteristics and applications of the EK series and EF series.
1.Overview of ball screw support seat
Ball screw support seats are mainly used to connect and support ball screws and motors to achieve precise rotational motion.
They are usually made of high-strength materials with excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The design of the support seat takes into account the ease of installation, precision and vibration resistance to ensure the efficient operation of the transmission system.
Detailed introduction of the fixed side (K end)
The fixed side support seat is mainly used to fix one end of the ball screw to prevent it from axial movement during operation. As a representative of fixed-side support seats, the EK series has the following significant features:
Design features: The EK series support seat adopts a low-shoulder single-through hole design, which is convenient for installation and positioning with the ball screw. Its compact structure can effectively save installation space.
Internal structure: The EK series support seat is equipped with JIS5 or PO grade angular contact ball bearings with preload adjustment. These bearings are precisely preloaded and can provide high-precision rotation performance.
At the same time, the internal bearing contains an appropriate amount of lithium soap-based grease and is sealed with a special sealing gasket to ensure that the grease will not leak during long-term use, while preventing the intrusion of dust and foreign matter.
Model specifications: The EK series support seat provides a variety of models and specifications, such as EK6, EK8, EK10, EK12, EK15, EK20, EK25, etc., to meet the needs of different transmission system
3.Support side (F end) Detailed introduction
The support side support seat is mainly used to support the other end of the ball screw, and works with the fixed side to maintain the straightness and coaxiality of the ball screw. As a representative of the support side support seat, the EF series also has significant characteristics:
Design features: The EF series support seat usually adopts a convex design, which is convenient for installation and positioning with the ball screw. At the same time, its compact structure and high rigidity can meet the needs of various transmission systems.
Internal structure: The EF series support seat uses deep groove ball bearings and is sealed with an appropriate amount of grease. This design can effectively suppress the leakage of grease and prevent the mixing of fine dust or foreign matter, thereby extending the service life of the product. In addition, the EF series support seat also has a high load-bearing capacity and can adapt to various load conditions.
Model specifications: The EF series support seat also provides a variety of models and specifications, such as EF6, EF8, EF10, EF12, EF15, EF20, EF25, etc., to meet the needs of different transmission systems.
4.Application of EK series and EF series
EK series and EF series support seats are widely used in various transmission systems due to their high precision, high rigidity and easy installation and maintenance. Especially in the fields of CNC machine tools, automation equipment, robots, etc., they play an irreplaceable role.
At the same time, these support seats are also suitable for occasions that require high-precision transmission and stable operation, such as aerospace, precision measurement and other fields.
The fixed side (K end) and the supporting side (F end) of the ball screw support seat play a vital role in the transmission system.
As mainstream products on the market, BCNC EK series and EF series have won wide recognition and application with their high precision, high rigidity and easy installation and maintenance.
When selecting a support seat, comprehensive consideration should be given to the specific requirements and actual conditions of the transmission system to ensure the selection of the most suitable model and specifications.
At the same time, regular inspection and maintenance of the support seat is also the key to ensure the stable operation of the transmission system. If you have any questions, please contact BCNC: 13322651236
