Maxon is known worldwide for its high-quality, high-performance motors, which are used in a wide range of high-tech applications such as automation, medical technology and robotics. As a leading supplier in the field of drive technology, maxon is a prime example of precision and innovative strength. In one project, maxon was faced with the task of developing a new motor for one of its customers. particularly compact and powerful motor a requirement that demanded a customized solution and maximum efficiency. Thanks to the close cooperation with Eichenberger, this challenging task was mastered. Our 4×1 Ball screw drive Carry offered the right solution.
Technical challenge: Baraum optimization and the tailor-made spindle interface
One of the biggest challenges in this project was the Limited installation space of the maxon motor, which was specially developed for the end customer's requirements. Our 4×1 ball screw Carry had to be integrated with one hundredth of a millimeter precision in order to meet the make optimum use of available space. To this end, we developed a customized spindle interface that enabled maxon to design the motor directly around the spindle. This interface helped to utilize the installation space efficiently and to achieve the required Accuracy of fit without compromising on functionality.
Tailor-made integration for maximum efficiency
Through the Customized spindle interface the Carry ball screw could be positioned in such a way as to ensure a stable and powerful drive solution for the end customer. This flexibility enabled maxon to make optimum use of the limited space and at the same time meet the high requirements for Precision and reliability to fulfill.
High efficiency with minimal installation space
With a Efficiency > 90% the Carry ball screw enables high performance to be achieved even with minimal installation space. Thanks to the precise adaptation to the limited space available, the screw contributes to the smooth operation and low maintenance requirements of the system. For the end customer, this means a reliable, efficient solution.
Future-proof solution for high-tech applications
The Carry ball screw has been designed to meet future requirements. Your Robustness and adaptability make them the ideal choice for drive technology applications that have to meet growing demands. This gives maxon and the end customer the security of having invested in a durable and powerful solution.
The 4×1 Carry ball screw drive: precision, load capacity and maximum efficiency
Our 4×1 ball screw Carry is the smallest spindle in our range and also one of the most flexible and powerful. It was developed in order to compact dimensions enormous loads and at the same time enable precise movements. These characteristics made it the ideal solution for maxon's compact motor, which was designed to meet the specific requirements of the end customer.
Enormous load capacity - 1000 times its own weight
Despite their small size, our ball screws can carry 1000 times their own weight. This impressive load capacity makes Carry the ideal choice for applications where high precision and robustness are required. This feature is invaluable in projects such as this, as it provides the end customer with the assurance that the components are reliable and resilient, while offering an unexpectedly long service life.
High efficiency for minimal energy consumption
Another advantage of the Carry ball screw is its high level of efficiency, which ensures efficient power transmission and low energy consumption. For applications that rely on a long service life and high efficiency, the Carry ball screw therefore offers a particularly sustainable solution. The high level of efficiency helps to extend the life cycle and minimize maintenance costs - a clear advantage for the end customer.
Variability and adaptability
The 4×1 is not only our smallest ball screw, but also one of the most adaptable. Whether it's materials, coatings or lubrication intervals, the ball screw can be tailored to the specific requirements of each application. This flexibility made it the perfect choice for maxon and the end customer, who both needed a customized solution.
Conclusion: The ball screw drive as an innovation driver for complex technical challenges
Our screw drive solutions show that maximum precision, load capacity and efficiency are possible even in a compact installation space. This project is an excellent example of how the close cooperation between Eichenberger, maxon and the end customer has enabled an innovative and customized solution for complex technical requirements.
