A leadscrew, often called a power screw or a translating screw, is a machine coupling that converts turning action into linear motion. Screw threads have higher frictional energy losses than other links due to their huge sliding area. They're more commonly utilized for intermittent use in low-power actuator and positioner systems than for carrying high power. Linear actuators, machine slides (such as in machine tools), vises, presses, and jacks all require leadscrews. In electric linear actuators, leadscrews are a frequent component. More Information...
