BALL SPLINE BALL SPLINE The NB ball spline is a linear motion mechanism utilizing the rolling motion of ball elements that can sustain loads and transfer torque simultaneously. It can be used in a wide variety of applications including robotics and transport type equipment. TYPES TYPES OF SPLINE NUT A wide variety of spline nut designs are available and all spline nuts come with side-seals as a standard feature. Table B-1 Types of Spline Nut type of nut Ease of Additional Custom Machining Since a round shaft with raceway grooves is used, NB ball spline shafts can be easily machined to...

BALL SPLINE ACCURACY TYPES OF SPLINE SHAFT Depending on the application requirements, either a ground spline shaft or a non-ground (commercial grade) spline shaft is available. The NB ball spline is measured for accuracy at the points shown in Figure B-2 and categorized as either highgrade (blank) or precision-grade (P). Contact NB for accuracy information on the commercial type ball spline. Figure B-2 Accuracy Measurement Points Table B-2 type of spline shaft ground spline shaft Note: The support area is the portion where, for example, radial bearings are attached in order to support the...

BALL SPLINE CALCULATION OF DEFLECTION AND DEFLECTION ANGLE OF SPLINE SHAFT The following formulas are used to obtain the deflection and its angle of the ball spline shaft. Typical conditions are listed in Table B-10.

BALL SPLINE ALLOWABLE ROTATIONAL SPEED OF SPLINE SHAFT When the rotational speed is increased and approaches the spline shaft resonant frequency, the spline shaft is disabled from further operation. This speed is called the critical speed and can be obtained by the following equations. In order to leave a sufficient safety margin, the allowable operating speed should be set at about 80% of the calculated value. Using the following equations, select the size of ball spline shaft. First, calculate Id and A by equation (8) and (9) then, substitute the values into equation (7). 2 ・d×103 I NC＝60...

BALL SPLINE LUBRICATION The spline nut is prelubricated with lithium soap based grease prior to shipment for immediate use. Please relubricate with a similar type of grease periodically depending on the operating conditions. Low dust generation grease is available from NB standard grease. (refer to page Eng-39) The NB spline nut has seals as standard. The seals work well to contain the grease inside the nut especially for the ground shaft, since the seal shape approximates the spline shaft profile. Figure B-10 Example of Lubrication Mechanism A Set of Spline Nut and Spline Shaft Figure B-12...
