Allows for a greaseless screw and nut interface, ideal for applications where conventional oils and greases can not be used for leadscrew lubrication, such as laboratory instrumentation
Servotechnic offers a Teflon coated leadscrew option for its line of miniature linear actuators from Haydon Switch.
The use of a Teflon coated leadscrew allows for a greaseless screw and nut interface.
This leadscrew option is ideal for applications where conventional oils and greases can not be used for leadscrew lubrication.
A dry (non-lubricated) Teflon coated leadscrew provides improved performance in both life and thrust as compared to a dry stainless steel leadscrew.
Teflon can be applied to a wide variety of leadscrew pitches and is available for both captive and non-captive shaft linear actuators.
The Teflon coated leadscrew is typically used for applications where contamination from grease or lubricants must be avoided, such as silicon wafer handling and clean room applications.
Other applications include medical equipment, laboratory instrumentation or anywhere precise linear motion is required.
