Automation 4 Less

Automation 4 Less offers two styles of brackets that can be used with many ball nuts to achieve a simple, sturdy way to connect the movement of the ball screw to your work.

This is definitely one of those times where a picture is worth a thosand words. The image at the top of this screen shows how the barrel of the ball nut inserts into the bracket. Bolts then secure the bracket to the ball nut. No drilling or modification is required when used with many of the standard ball nuts utilized on screws in 16mm ø, 20mm ø, 25mm ø and 32mm ø. This would include the BSFU style ball nuts that we use with our RM1605 and RM1610 assemblies. See available specification sheets and CAD drawings below to determine if these brackets will work with your ball nuts.

The differences between the two styles of brackets we offer is pretty simple. The "HD" series is machined from aluminum; the "MGD" series is machined from steel. There are also some design differences such as the 45° chamfers on the HD brackets. The HD brackets are more econimical. For the ultimate in strength, the MGD brackets are unsurpassed.

Most designs can benefit from the use of brackets such as these, and they can save a lot of time and aggrevation over fabricating something on your own.
