ROTARY BALL SPLINE LINEAR + ROTATIONAL MOTION COMPACT* HIGH RIGIDITY* HIGH ACCURACY* HIGH SPEED

NB ROTARY BALL SPLINE The NB rotary ball spline SPB type combines a spline nut and a set of angular contact bearings in a compact, high accurate, and high-speed rotation-capable assembly, providing both linear and rotational motion at the same time. Figure 1 Structure of SPB type The amount of clearance and preload for the spline nut is expressed in terms of the clearance in the rotational direction. Three levels of preload are available: standard, light (Tl), and medium (T2). The preload is properly adjusted by the spacer for the angular contact bearings. Table 1 Preload and Clearance in...

ROTARY BALL SPLINE The NB rotary ball spline is measured for accuracy at the points shown in Figure 2. Figure 2 Accuracy Measurement Points support area support area \part attachment area Note: The support area is the portion where, for example, radial bearings are attached in order to support the spline shaft. The part attachment area is the portion to which other parts, such as gears, are attached. © and © indicate radial runout during rotational motion.
