Rexroth LT304

Product Introduction Rexroth LT304 belongs to the LT series precision ball screw product family developed by Bosch Rexroth for linear positioning tasks. It converts rotary motion of servo or stepping motors into accurate linear displacement, delivering high repeatability, smooth movement and high dynamic response. It serves as core linear drive component for automated machinery, machine tools and handling equipment. The unit integrates precision ball screw shaft, ball nut assembly, recirculating ball elements and sealing components into one compact assembly.

Material Composition High-carbon chromium alloy steel for screw shaft and ball raceway; Hardened bearing steel rolling balls; Reinforced plastic wiper seal; Aluminum alloy nut housing; High-performance lithium-based lubricating grease prefilled.

Structural Characteristics Cylindrical threaded screw shaft; Recirculating ball nut assembly; Internal ball circulation channel inside nut body; External mounting flange on nut for mechanical connection; Double-sided wiper seals at both ends of nut; Standard shaft ends for coupling mounting.

Working Principle Rotary torque from driving motor transfers to ball screw shaft. Rolling balls circulate inside the raceway between screw shaft and nut. The rolling contact converts rotation into linear motion of nut assembly. Preload removes mechanical backlash, ensuring precise linear position output. Seals keep contaminants outside the ball raceway.

Installation Requirements Align screw shaft and guide rail parallelism strictly during mounting. Support both ends of screw shaft with bearing housings. Apply proper preload setting on nut assembly. Fill or replenish specified Rexroth Dynalub grease before commissioning. Keep the protective cover intact to block metal chips and liquid splash.

Usage Notes Avoid axial impact and overload shock load. Do not run without lubricant. Inspect seal condition and grease replenishment periodically. Prevent metal chips and abrasive dust entering nut assembly. Protect screw thread surface from scratches and corrosion.
