Repeatable positioning of lenses, mirrors, and sensors
In the optical industry, fractions of a micrometer determine the quality of optical components. Lead screws or standard ball screws quickly reach their limits - for example due to backlash, uneven motion, or limited rigidity. These inaccuracies can negatively affect the alignment of lenses, mirrors, or sensors in optical systems and reduce measurement or manufacturing quality.
High-Precision Ball Screws from GROB provide the right solution. They enable highly repeatable positioning of optical components and linear stages, ensure smooth motion, and minimize backlash. This allows precision and dynamics to be optimally combined, exactly what design engineers in optical engineering require.
High-Precision Ball Screws are also used in lens manufacturing
High-Precision Ball Screws reliably meet the requirements of the optical industry
Typical requirements in this field include maximum repeatability, low friction, stable positioning under varying loads, and long service life. Grounded High-Precision Ball Screws with selectable preload and tight lead tolerances reliably meet these demands. Optional measurement reports and our personalized engineering support ensure that the solution is perfectly matched to your application.
With GROB Ball Screws, you benefit not only from outstanding precision and process stability, but also from transparent quality assurance measures and decades of experience, especially in sensitive applications within the optical industry.
