RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] ballscrew swarf protector

OK, I have about 2-3 inches of unused screw travel the saddles leftmost
position. I'd like to be able to go out to 20 inches. Will bellows do that?
The screw is 5/8" diam...

Can you recommend a supplier?

Hi,

If you have the room why not fit a gaiter similar to the ones fitted to
motocross/trail motor bike front forks. They are very cheap and come in
different lengths and sizes.

Regards,

Terry



Ball-Screws and Actuators sells circular brushes with holders for fitting
on
the ends of the ball-nuts to keep out dust (swarf). A firm by name
"Sealeze"(?) makes circular BRASS brushes for same purpose. NICE stuff.
Bring money!
