Both ends of the mentioned trapezoidal screw shaft (2) are subjected to axial loads. to ensure stability underneath and to stabilize the rotational movement, bearings (21) It is supported by the linear motion of the movable table (5) with low friction surfaces. This takes place on induction hardened chrome shafts (4). These shafts are precise and It enables repeatable positioning. The system consists of at least two devices installed in the body for safety and to prevent excessive movement. The rotational movement of the stepper motor (23) during operation is limited by the limit switch (3). The transmission is transmitted to the trapezoidal screw shaft (2) via the flexible coupling (22). The mechanism attached to the shaft is 25 It rotates in a balanced manner thanks to the bearings (21). The screw rotation is linear back and forth. By turning it into motion, the movable table (5) slides on chrome shafts (4). Limit switches (3) ensures that this movement remains within safe limits. Thus, all components working together in harmony, low-cost, modular and high-precision linear It enables the achievement of movement. 30
