Ball splines are used in automated operations including robotics, inspection, spinning, molding, and more. The ball splines combine a linear bushing (nut) that handles greater moment loads and a shaft, which unlike a rail, can be rotated when needed.
How do you select the right ball splines for rotation or linear motion? Check out these Top Tips to learn the advantages that ball splines offer, how the shape and number of grooves affect performance, and which type of shaft delivers the most cost-effective performance.
