Screw drives in electrical engineering: Achieve higher energy efficiency and travel speed with electromechanical drives

Electromechanical drives have a number of advantages over hydraulic drives: significantly better energy efficiency, higher positioning accuracy, better controllability, controlled travel profiles. In industrial automation, robotics and medical technology, the future therefore belongs to electromechanical equipment - opening up enormous optimization potential for you as a manufacturer.
Previously unimagined development possibilities also lie dormant in countless industrial and research applications for semiconductors, photovoltaic systems, vacuum valves and much more. Electrics and mechanics work hand in hand: in an electromechanical drive, the rotary movement of the electric motor is converted into a longitudinal movement using a threaded spindle from Eichenberger. Experience our innovative spirit in a personal meeting - we will inspire you to find your perfect drive solution.

Application examples

Electrical appliances
Electrical appliances
In electrical appliances, rotary motion must be converted into linear motion powerfully, quickly and precisely. Ball screw drives from Eichenberger are robust and reliable - and have an almost unlimited service life. They are also characterized by enormous adaptability, possible miniaturization and high precision.
Servo presses: Automating assembly processes
Servo presses
At the heart of the servo presses are electrically driven, cold-rolled ball screw drives. They convert the rotary movement of the motor into a linear movement of the piston rod. Ball screw drives as a standard product and made to measure are a core competence of Eichenberger.
Hose connector BioWelder TC
Welding equipment
The portable, programmable hose connector enables the fully automatic and fast connection of thermoplastic hoses using a sterile welding process. Two ball screw drives "Carry ZYI" from Eichenberger meet all the requirements to help this exceptional welding device achieve absolutely reliable top efficiency and highly precise movements.
Security for the power grid
Electric switch
Circuit-breakers are essential for the safe operation of the power grid. They have to switch the entire output of a power plant on and off and control voltages of up to 1500 kV. Cold-rolled ball screws, such as those from Eichenberger, play an important and responsible key role here.
