Ball screw lead

Lead Size: Leads are divided into two categories to suit a variety of applications.
High helical lead (large lead): This way, the ball nut travels a longer distance when the screw shaft makes one revolution (or one revolution of the ball nut).
This is suitable for high speed operation.
Fine pitch lead: The ball nut travels a shorter distance for one revolution of the screw shaft (or one revolution of the ball nut).
This is suitable for high precision positioning.
