Worldwide, there are a total of four large latest-generation Cherenkov telescopes: Australia, Namibia, La Palma and the USA. Around 4000 electrically driven, cold-rolled ballscrews help researchers to observe the cosmos from the Canary Island and to gain more knowledge about mysterious objects and extreme events in the universe. Positioning the telescopes in the northern and southern hemispheres allows for optimal monitoring. Just what exactly do these observations accomplish and how does Eichenberger Gewinde AG play a role in such valuable findings?
Rollvis Swiss satellite rollerscrews - a superior linear drive alternative!

Satellite rollerscrews are similar to ballscrews, but with one important difference: the load transfer elements are threaded rollers instead of balls. The rollers offer a large number of contact points to transfer the load. They can achieve over 90% efficiency and have an expected life up to 15 times longer than any ballscrew equivalent. Rollerscrews are capable of very heavy load capacities and high acceleration and deceleration speeds, making them a superior linear drive alternative. | |

Leadscrew technology can be found throughout history in many forms. But where are its origins?
Why is satellite roller screw technology a less recognised option, when compared to other mechanisms for conversion of rotary torque into linear motion ?
Ballscrews & Leadscrews are among the most frequently used drive systems in many areas. The Eichenberger spindle technology and thread rolling (cold forming of outer surface of round parts) combine maximum load-bearing capacity and force density with incredible dynamics, amazing precision and maximum running performance.
Moore International prides itself on ensuring precision from start to finish. Please take the time to watch this short overview video of what we are all about.
Moore international will be hosting a stand at this years Machine Building Live on the 4th October 2023. The venue is the National Motorcycle Museum in Birmingham located immediately adjacent to the NEC B920EJ.
Moore International’s ever-expanding CNC machining and turning facilities have become the heart of what makes the company a premium supplier of bespoke quality leadscrews and ballscrews.
