Webinar on wipers on ball screws by August Steinmeyer

Ball screws are key components in many industrial applications. Proper handling and maintenance are critical to maintaining their performance. On October 11, 2023 at 6 p.m., August Steinmeyer will offer a free webinar on the topic of "Wipers on Ball Screws" - with comprehensive expert knowledge as well as tips and tricks from the field.

Ball screws are crucial in many industrial applications. Whether in automation technology, mechanical engineering, aerospace, medical technology or the semiconductor industry - they play a key role in linear technology in various industries and ensure precise movement and positioning. But there are also challenges in the application: for example, contaminants that can enter the nut. This can not only shorten the service life of ball screws, but also affect their running characteristics and accuracy.

"Our webinar is about the solution to this problem: namely, wipers," reports Sascha Abokat, a long-time sales representative and webinar leader at August Steinmeyer. "These inconspicuous components play a crucial role when it comes to protecting ball screws from dirt, dust and other particles." The webinar will show how the right wipers can not only increase the reliability of machinery and equipment, but also minimize the need for lubricants.

These are the topics that will be discussed on October 11, 2023:
