4.3 Supporting Method
Fig. 6 shows the typical method of supporting ball screws. When strict operating conditions of high degree of accuracy are
required, careful consideration must be taken because the supporting method has a direct relation to permissible axial load and
critical speed.

4. DESIGN OF SCREW SHAFTS
4.6 Hints on Designing a Screw Shaft (3) Treatment of screw shaft end
When it is necessary to dowel the screw shaft after it is
received, specify the position and size of the dowel pin.

When mounting a ball screw, it is not advisable to select unhardened for ease of post-treatment.
such a construction that the screw shaft has to be discon-
nected from the nut. If the screw shaft is disconnected
from the nut, the steel ball may come off, the nut posi-
tion accuracy and preload amount may fluctuate and the
steel ball circulating part may be broken. When it is
unavoidably necessary to employ such a construction,
supply us with a part mountable between the screw shaft
and the nut. We will fit the part to the ball screw in out
factory before shipment.
When disconnecting the screw shaft from the nut in an
unavoidable case, use a sleeve as shown in Fig. 9 to dis-
connect the screw shaft with the steel ball housed in the
nut. In this case, the sleeve outside diameter should be
less than the screw shaft root diameter by 0.2 0.4mm
(refer to the dimension table).
