4 Bosch Rexroth Corp. Linear Motion and Assembly Technologies eline BSA R310A 3314 (2005.04) Product Overview Product Background eline Ball Screws are available from stock as complete assemblies, with screw-in or flanged nuts. The pre-finished machining is easily combined with the fixed bearing LGL (support block with bearing) as a complete package. The eline products can simplify the choices for many customer-specified transport applications. The part number specification and ordering process for new applications can also be handled more effectively. Relaxed tolerances provide very economical linear motion solutions. Every nut is assembled with clearance. The flanged nut comes standard with seals; the screw-in version offers seals as an option. Cost savings are always a priority with the eline. The load capacity of the support bearing is critical. By friction welding the bearing forward, we were able to enlarge smaller screw diameters and increase the load bearing capacity.

R310A 3314 (2005.04) eline BSA Linear Motion and Assembly Technologies Bosch Rexroth Corp. 5 Advantages High axial load capacity From stock Flanged or screw-in nuts With seals, if specified Bearing and slotted lock nut optional Angular-contact thrust bearing with Nut, LAL series The end bearing LGL with angular-contact ball bearing in an X arrangement makes an ideal accessory. Grooved Ball Bearing with Safety Ring, LAD series Storage with grooved Ball Bearings High load capacity Very easy mounting with the flanged housing Corrosion-resistant housing Seals provide protection from contaminants Simple preload of the fixed bearing Maintenance free for most application due to the large lubricant reservoir with initial greasing Economical turnkey solutions made easy.

One of the advantages of oil lubrication over grease lubrication is therefore the minimized heat build-up of the ball screw, particularly at high speeds. As a rule, commercially available mineral base oils used for ball bearings are suitable. The necessary viscosity depends on the speed, temperature and load conditions of the respective application (see DIN 51501, 51517, 51519 and GfT Worksheet 3). Oils ranging from ISO VG 68 to approx. ISO VG 460 are used in practice. The high viscosity grades (e.g. ISO VG 460) should be preferred in general and particularly for slow running screws. A maximum relubrication interval of up to 10 operating hours can be attained with small quantities from the table along side. The advantage of grease lubrication is that the ball screw can run long distances on one supply of grease. As a result, a lubricating system is not required in many cases. The amount of grease used should fill the nuts to approximately half of their capacity. All commercially available ball bearing lubricating greases may be used. Read the lubricant manufacturer s specifications carefully! Never use greases with solid lubricant component (e.g. graphite or MoS 2 ). Greases in accordance with DIN 51825 K2K and, for higher loads, KP2K of NLGI Class 2 according to DIN 51818 are recommended for the longest possible lubrication intervals. Tests have proven that greases of NLGI Class 00 achieve only about 50% of the running performance of Class 2 greases at high loads. The lubrication interval depends on many factors such as the degree of contamination, operating temperature, load, etc. The following values can thus serve only as a guideline.

22 Bosch Rexroth Corp. Linear Motion and Assembly Technologies eline BSA R310A 3314 (2005.04) Mounting Condition as delivered Rexroth Ball Screw Assemblies are normally lubricated with NLGl 2 grease when specified. This initial lubrication allows for relubrication using either oil or grease. If you use a different type of lubrication, please ensure that the other lubricant can be mixed. In special cases, you can specify a corrosionpreserved Ball Screw Assembly. Important: The selected lubricant must be in the nut before the machine is started. Cleaning: Various cleaning agents can be used to degrease and wash the assembly: Aqueous cleaning agents Organic cleaning agents Immediately after cleaning, thoroughly dry all parts, then apply a preservative coating or anti-corrosion oil. In all cases, take care to observe the appropriate legal regulations (environmental protection, health and safety at work, etc.) as well as the specifications for the cleaning agent (e.g. handling). Storage Nut mounting Ball screw assemblies are high-quality systems that must be treated with due care. In order to prevent damage and contamination, the elements should not be removed from the protective wrapping until immediately before installation. Once they have been removed from the packaging, they must be set down on V-shaped cradles. Single nut with standard backlash Single nut with reduced backlash The nut unit may only be mounted using a mounting arbor. The outer diameter of the arbor should be approx. 0.1 mm smaller than the root diameter of the screw. In most cases, the transport arobor on which the nuts are delivered may be used to mount the nut. The end of the screw thread must be chamfered in order to prevent damage to the seal and the internal components of the nut unit. The various mounting steps are described below. Proceed in reverse order when removing the nut from the screw. Take particular care not to damage the nut, screw or internal components, as this could result in the premature failure of the ball screw assembly.

Installation in the Machine It is not normally necessary to remove the preservative coating before installation. If the ball screw is contaminated it must first be cleaned (see Cleaning ) and reoiled Push the nut unit into the mounting bore, taking care to avoid any impacts or misalignment. Tighten the mounting screws using a torque wrench if necessary. Maximum tightening torque for the steel/steel material pairing (R m 370 N/mm 2 ), see table. Push the mounting arbor with nut until it engages with the end of the thread. The arbor must make contact with axial clearance. Carefully turn the nut unit onto the thread, applying only light axial pressure.
