High-Speed Ball Screw with Caged Ball Model SBK-Large lead

Product catalog summary
Overview
The document details the High-Speed Ball Screw with Caged Ball technology, specifically the SBK model, designed for high-speed feed operations up to 200 m/min with a DN value of 210,000. This model features a ball cage that reduces friction and noise, ensuring long-term maintenance-free operation.
Specifications
The SBK model achieves high-speed operation through a unique ball circulation structure that minimizes collision noise and torque fluctuation. It is available in various models, such as SBK5050-5.6 and SBK3636-5.6, each with specific rotational speeds, stroke lengths, and load capacities.
Features
  • High Speed: Capable of achieving a DN value of 210,000, allowing for high-speed feed.
  • Smooth Motion: The ball cage design eliminates friction between balls, ensuring smooth operation.
  • Low Noise: The design minimizes collision noise, providing a quieter operation.
  • Maintenance-Free: Enhanced grease retention allows for long-term maintenance-free use.
Performance and Durability
The SBK series demonstrates high-speed and load durability, with tests showing no issues after extensive use. The ball screw's nominal life and service life time are calculated based on dynamic and static load ratings, ensuring reliability under specified conditions.
Accuracy Standards
The ball screws are manufactured to comply with JIS B1192 standards, ensuring precision and reliability. Lead accuracy is verified using laser measurement techniques.
Options
  • QZ Lubricator: Provides consistent lubrication, extending maintenance intervals.
  • Wiper Ring: Prevents foreign matter from entering the ball screw nut, enhancing durability.
Precautions
Users are advised not to disassemble components, mix lubricants, or exceed specified operational temperatures and speeds. Proper handling and maintenance are crucial to prevent damage and ensure optimal performance.
Specifications and Usage
Ensure proper mounting and accuracy when installing the product. For environments with constant vibrations or special conditions like clean rooms, vacuum, or extreme temperatures, consult THK beforehand. Avoid letting the ball screw nut overrun to prevent damage or loss of balls.
Storage Instructions
Store the Ball Screw in THK's designated packaging, horizontally, and away from extreme temperatures and humidity.

Note: The rigidity values In the table represent spring constants each obtained from the load and the elastic displacement when providing a preload 10% of the basic dynamic load rating (Ca) and applying an axial load three times greater than the preload. These values do not Include the rigidity of the components related to mounting the ball screw nut. Therefore, It Is normally appropriate to regard roughly 80% of the value In the table as the actual If the applied preload (Fao) Is not 0.1 Ca, the rigidity value (KN) IS obtained from the following equation.

For model SBK, two options are available to achieve long-term maintenance-free operation. Specifically, they are QZ Lubricator for Ball Screws, which contains a highly oil-impregnated fiber net, and Wiper Ring, which is a contact seal for Ball Screws highly capable of removing foreign matter. QZ Lubricator is a new lubrication system capable of feeding the required amount of lubricant where it is needed. Highly oil-impregnated fiber net • Enables longer maintenance-free intervals Normally, a small amount of oil is lost from ball screws during operation. By adding the lubricator QZ, oil lost over...
