Coupling stepper to ball screw | |
Hi everyone,
I have a query regarding the coupling of a stepper motor to a ball screw.
Can you use a solid coupler when the ball screw is supported with back to back angular contact bearings at the motor end?
Or do you still need some sort of flex coupling with some give in it?
Obviously the solid coupler is easy to make and costs nothing more than a bit of material and some time, but real flex couplers can be a bit dear.
Cheers all, M
