5.5 precautions for screw design 5.5.1 thread runoff adjacent diameter the following considerations should be given to ensure an economical design for your ball screw application the ball thread runoff must extend off one end of the screw shaft for the following ball nut models this is to facilitate the loading of the ball nut package a internal deflector type b yoke deflector type c flange/base mount housing type 5.5.2 hardness/transition zone rbc s ball screw shaft is induction hardened thus an incompletely hardened zone may be present at each end of the screw thread area depending on the design please consider this when designing the effective stroke consult rbc for details 6 nut design 6.1 nut selection 6.1.1 series the required accuracy delivery size and ball nut style must be considered when selecting the proper series for your application 6.1.2 ball re-circulation type select the ball re-circulation type according to the ball nut mounting and application standard external retur

8 service life the service life of ball screws should be considered in terms of both wear life and fatigue life accuracy deterioration due to wear is largely influenced by operating conditions lubrication effectiveness etc 8.1 wear life normal maintenance lubrication and the use of contamination prevention devices such as bellows or telescopic covers will keep wear to a minimum the amount of wear is proportional to the number of cycles under load that the system experiences severe operating conditions such as high speed oscillation less than one turn or hostile dirty environments will shorten the wear life 8.2 fatigue life the fatigue life of the ball screw may be estimated from the basic dynamic rated load as is the case of rolling bearings 8.2.1 basic dynamic rated load ca the basic dynamic rated load is an axial load which allows 90 of a group of identical ball screws rotated under the same conditions to rotate without flaking for 1 million revolutions this basic dynamic rated load
