Eichenberger Leadscrews
We are the the largest stockist of Swiss precision Eichenberger Gewinde leadscrews outside of Switzerland. Eichenberger Leadscrews are suitable for a variety of applications, and, for short strokes, are an ideal substitute for drive belts due to their low production costs. In addition, leadscrews are perfectly suitable as substitutes for hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. The leadscrew design allows low-friction acceleration as well as free positioning and they operate without any secondary energy forces. In certain circumstances, leadscrews are an ideal alternative to trapezoidal or ballscrews due to high efficiency and asignificant cost-to-performance ratio.
Eichenebrger Leadscrews' secret to unrivalled performance is the'cold-rolled' thread. Typical leadscrew thread manufacturing processes such as milling, turning or whirling involve machines cutting the material, with the disadvantage of interrupting the grain of the steel. However Eichenberger’s cold-rolling produces very precise thread geometries with high surface quality. Instead of cutting, a radial dynamic force is exerted onto the shaft between two rotating rolling dies to form the thread. Thread-rolling diverts the longitudinal grain of the metal, hardening the surface profile at the same time. This "smooth rolled surface" offers little opportunity for dirt to attach aiding in low friction, low noise, long service life and giving excellent energy efficiency of the leadscrew
Whether it's speed, weight or cost efficiency, Eichenberger have leadcrews to fit the requirements that you are looking for.
SPEEDY. Eichenberger Speedy high-helix leadscrews give unprecedented high travel speeds from very low rotational speeds
RONDO. Eichenberger Rondo round-thread leadscrews give high levels of efficiency with extremely low noise levels. An ideal alternative to conventional trapezoidal leadscrews.
EASY. Eichenberger Easy, lightweight rolled aluminum leadscrews with a friction-resistant coating (hard anodised). Ideal for increased loads in challenging climatic conditions or difficult environments.
