The innovative BF12 Floating Ball Screw Support features a unique design that accommodates 16mm ball screws, improving their performance through an ingenious floating clip system. This system is specifically engineered to allow for a slight degree of misalignment, which is crucial in reducing the risk of binding. Precision positioning equipment, in particular, will benefit from this feature as even the smallest deviation can lead to significant inaccuracies.

By incorporating a controlled amount of play within its design, the BF12 Floating Ball Screw Support effectively prevents premature wear and tear on vital machine components, thereby extending the operational lifespan of the machinery it is used in. Additionally, it absorbs vibration and mitigates shock loads, resulting in a smoother linear actuation process. Users will have confidence that their motion will remain unencumbered by binding, a common issue faced by inferior systems.

Designed with durability in mind, the BF12 Floating Ball Screw Support is built to withstand demanding applications. It maintains its integrity and functionality even under stressful conditions, ensuring the peak efficiency of your machinery.

Commonly paired with 16mm screws such as the SFU1605, the floating support becomes an integral component of complete actuator assemblies. For a hassle-free solution, kits are available that include compatible components, carefully matched to ensure seamless integration. These plug-and-play kits save you time and ensure all your components work flawlessly together. Choosing such kits significantly reduces setup time and gets your equipment up and running faster, with the assurance that each component has been pre-selected to work harmoniously together.

The simplest way to use the BF12 is to mount a SFU1605 Ball Screw using a BK12 Fixed Ball Screw Support and a DSG16 Ball Nut Housing on a Gantry Plate. Furthermore, for all the parts required for a ball screw setup, please refer to our full 16mm Ball Screw Kits.
