Borrisl,
Good hearing from you, were those double nuts capable of preloading. With preloading that backlash should get even closer to zero, if not zero. You showed your machine eariler in a previous post, it's really something. I wish my backlash were as low as yours. My screws had the ends of the original acme screws welded on, and I'm wondering if I could take the balls out of a new ballnut and slip it over the weld and load the balls in it and then preload it.
Let's see what the shopmaster guys think,
Thanks,
Ron |
