In an automatic control system, it is used as an actuator and has characteristics such as a small electromechanical time constant and high linearity. It can convert the received electrical signal into angular displacement or angular velocity output on the motor shaft. It is divided into two categories: DC and AC servo motors. Its main feature is that there is no self-rotation phenomenon when the signal voltage is zero, and the rotational speed decreases uniformly with the increase of torque. The ball screw 53 is an ideal product for converting rotary motion into linear motion or converting linear motion into rotary motion. The ball screw is composed of a screw, a nut, steel balls, a preloading piece, a reverser, and a dust protector.
