Lead screws are suitable for a variety of Applications. For short strokes, they are a substitute for drive belts due to their low production costs.
In addition they are perfectly suitable as substitutes for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. Indeed, they allow low-friction acceleration as well as free positioning and operate without any secondary energy forces.
When appropriate they are also ideal alternatives to trapezoidal or ball screws due to high efficiency and a convincing cost to performance ratio.
