Calculate Lead of Screw





Formula

The formula to calculate the Lead of Screw is:

\[ L = Pscrew \cdot n \]

Definition

Lead of Screw is the linear travel the nut makes per one screw revolution and is how ball screws are typically specified.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ L = 5 \cdot 16 = 80 \text{ m} \]
