The ZBX Series anti-backlash assembly debuts, described by its manufacturer as an ideal linear actuator for design operations requiring precise positional accuracy and repeatability at a minimal cost. The standard unit is said to use a patented, self-lubricating polyacetal nut that is radially preloaded on a 303 stainless-steel screw. The co. says damping qualities make it suitable for vertical applications requiring noise or vibration control.
