Ball screw actuators provide linear motion in response to an input torque, and they have enclosed recirculating ball bearings that travel on a threaded shaft with minimal friction. Ball screw splines combine a driven-nut-type ball-screw assembly with a rotary ball spline and can provide linear, rotary, and spiral motion.
