Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions has expanded the capabilities of its precision lead screw products. Its Micro Series lead screw assemblies are 2mm (5/64-in) diameter screws with available standard leads ranging from 0.3mm (0.012-in) to 2mm (0.079-in) per revolution and in a variety of nut configurations manufactured using self-lubricating acetal. The new series allows for the miniaturization of products, reduced power consumption, and weight reduction without sacrificing performance or reliability. The lead screws are available as stand-alone components or integrated into the Haydon can-stack linear actuators. Manufactured of premium grade 303 stainless steel, the lead screw assemblies provide exceptional performance, long life, and require no maintenance. High-accuracy threads with superior uniformity deliver precise motion, and reduce noise and vibration. An optional Kerkote TFE coating, a permanent dry lubricant, extends nut life while reducing friction and drive torque requirements.
