The track embedded screw sliding table, also known as embedded module or embedded screw module, is a specially designed linear motion control device. Its characteristic is to embed screws and nuts inside the guide track of the slide table to achieve a more compact structural design and higher system rigidity. The following is a detailed analysis of the track embedded screw slide table:
1、 Structural characteristics
Compact design: By embedding screws and nuts inside the guide track of the slide table, the entire structure becomes more compact, greatly saving space. This design is particularly suitable for production environments with limited space, such as semiconductor equipment, precision instruments, and other manufacturing fields.
High rigidity: Due to the embedded screws and nuts in the guide track, the system has higher rigidity and can provide more stable motion. The base and guide rail of the slide table are often made of high-strength and high-quality steel, as well as the double arc design of the internal groove, which further enhances the rigidity and load capacity of the slide table.
High precision: The optimized guiding structure and stable motion characteristics ensure the high-precision positioning and repeatability of the slide table. For example, the track embedded in the body can achieve a high straightness of ± 0.02mm after grinding and walking, ensuring high-precision motion control.
2、 Working principle
The working principle of the track embedded screw slide table is based on the spiral transmission between the screw and the nut. When the driving device applies power, the screw begins to rotate. Due to the precise thread fit between the screw and nut, when the screw rotates, the nut will move in a straight line along the axial direction of the screw. This spiral transmission method has high transmission efficiency and accuracy, and can achieve precise control of small displacements. Under the drive of the nut, the slider connected to the nut will smoothly slide along the guide rail, which provides stable guidance to ensure the accuracy and straightness of its movement direction.
3、 Application Fields
The track embedded screw slide table is widely used in industrial automation, precision instrument manufacturing, robotics and other fields due to its high precision, high rigidity and compact design. For example, on an automated production line, it can accurately transport workpieces or perform specific actions; In precision instruments, it is used to achieve high-precision displacement and positioning; Provide flexible and reliable motion control at the joints of the robot.
4、 Advantages and disadvantages
