Tr5x1 for cnc machine parts lead screw

Good quality Trapezoidal Lead Screw Tr20x4

Ball screws and trapezoidal screws are not interchangeable in many cases, and there is always a trade-off between accuracy, rigidity and load capacity. There may not be a complete correspondence between specifications and performance.
There are some differences in the applications of ball screws and trapezoidal screws. The application system of the original equipment manufacturer often needs the "just right" product, and the lead screw is often the right choice. Lead screw products are easy to adjust to specific applications to achieve expected performance while keeping costs to a minimum. In some cases, life testing is required in the design phase, but for original equipment manufacturers, carrying out such additional work in the early stage can help reduce product costs. Ball screws can run continuously, withstand much higher loads, and reach faster speeds. The increased cost for this is worthwhile. For the end user, the ball screw has good predictability, so it is the best choice to ensure rapid integration and reliability. For example, factory automation systems rely heavily on ball screw technology. Of course, there are many OEM applications that also require ball screws, such as the machine tool industry. For OEMs, it is performance and cost, not predictability, that determine technology.
