3 ms·Dumb question: Why do you have to replace the ball screw with Acme?by mauvehaus 6y agoDumb question: Why do you have to replace the ball screw with Acme?abakker 6y agoWithout a stepper to hold the torque all the time, ballscrews will creep. The friction is too low. You could leave the ballscrew and just add a shaft locking clamp, or be fancy and drive it with an actual stepper motor.mauvehaus 6y agoMakes sense. Thank you.
