Rollvis Swiss satellite rollerscrews - a superior linear drive alternative

Satellite rollerscrews are similar to ballscrews, but with one important difference: the load transfer elements are threaded rollers instead of balls. The rollers offer a large number of contact points to transfer the load. They can achieve over 90% efficiency and have an expected life up to 15 times longer than any ballscrew equivalent.  Rollerscrews are capable of very heavy load capacities and high acceleration and deceleration speeds, making them a superior linear drive alternative.
 

 

 

Rollvis satellite rollerscrews have proven their superiority over ballscrews in many industries and applications such as:
 

Robotics

Aeronautics

Space (launchers & satellites)

Defense

Energy (nuclear, oil, solar)

Medical

Optics

Automotive

Machines

Semiconductors

Electric actuators

Presses

 

As an alternative to ballscrews, Rollvis satellite rollerscrews offer an advantage in the following areas:

 

High axial load capacity

Longer lifespan

Higher efficiency

No backlash

Rigidity

Accuracy (down to 6µm/300mm)

Small leads from 0.02mm

Eichenberger Miniature Ballscrews helping to put a smile on peoples faces

Eichenberger develops, designs and manufactures ultra-small, high-precision ballscrews that are often utilised in the sensitive and demanding applications of the biotech, pharmaceutical and medical technology industries. Eichenberger’s cold-rolled, hard and smooth thread surfaces make them ideal for applications in sterile and clean environments.
Here’s how an Eichenberger ballscrew just 4mm wide and with a pitch of 1mm is helping to put a smile on people’s faces around the world. 




Eichenberger Ballscrews helping our view of the stars!

Worldwide, there are a total of four large latest-generation Cherenkov telescopes: Australia, Namibia, La Palma and the USA. Around 4000 electrically driven, cold-rolled ballscrews help researchers to observe the cosmos from the Canary Island and to gain more knowledge about mysterious objects and extreme events in the universe. Positioning the telescopes in the northern and southern hemispheres allows for optimal monitoring. Just what exactly do these observations accomplish and how does Eichenberger Gewinde AG play a role in such valuable findings?
