The lead screw nut from iglidur JPF is characterised by its wide range of screw attachment options on the flange. Manufactured using injection moulding, it offers high precision and resilience. The material iglidur JPF is particularly environmentally friendly as it is PTFE-free and PFAS-tested. These specifications make the lead screw nut ideal for applications where both high mechanical requirements and environmental aspects need to be taken into account.

• Quiet running due to rounded tooth geometry and longer service life due to asymmetry of the dryspin thread geometry

The pre-load lead screw nut impresses with minimal axial clearance and maximum positioning accuracy. It is the cost-effective alternative to zero-backlash lead screw nuts and is ideal for small pitches. It is based on the proven pre-load principle from SHT-PL.

• Permanently minimised axial clearance for high positioning accuracy
• Cost-effective compared to the ZB-lead screw nut due to injection moulding production process
• Reduced axial clearance due to spring preload of the lead screw nut
• No grease or oil in the lead screw drive

One of the most precise solutions for reducing axial clearance is the zero-backlash lead screw nut. It consists of several components and is self-adjusting to the service life. It is particularly suitable for screw drives with a high helix thread for quick adjustment of small loads. The zero-backlash lead screw nut is available in two new dimensions (DS3.5x1 and DS4x2.4).

• Load-independent, lifelong minimum axial clearance thanks to self-adjusting zero-backlash functional principle
• No maintenance work
• Reduced axial clearance due to radial spring preload of the lead screw nut parts
• No grease or oil in the lead screw drive and
• long service life due to patented asymmetry

New dryspin dimensions DS6.35, DS8 and DS12x25. Reverse lead screws convert rotary movements into translatory movements and consist of a lead screw with right-hand and left-hand thread. We are expanding our dryspin product range with the diameters 6.35mm, 8mm and our dimension DS12x25. Both lead screws with different directions of rotation are connected to each other by means of a pinned machined end connection. Thanks to their design, they save space and offer flexibility for format adjustments. These lead screws are often used in automation technology and mechanical engineering.
