What is the difference between the lead screw of modern CNC machine tool and the lead screw of tradition

Different control methods: modern CNC machine tool screws are controlled by CNC systems, which can achieve high-precision, high-efficiency, and high-automation processing, while traditional machine tool screws are operated manually.

1、High precision requirements: modern CNC machine tool screws have higher processing precision requirements because they are usually used to process high-precision parts and components, which require the precision and stability of processing. The processing precision requirements of traditional machine tool screws are relatively low because they are usually used to process some less precise parts.

2、Fast processing speed: modern CNC machine tool screws can achieve high-speed processing, higher production efficiency, while the processing speed of traditional machine tool screws is relatively slow.

3、Different structure and materials: modern CNC machine tool screws are usually made of high-strength, high-rigidity, and wear-resistant materials, and their structures are more complicated. Traditional machine tool screws have relatively simple structures, and a wider range of materials can be used.

4、High degree of automation: modern CNC machine tool screws can achieve highly automated production, such as automatic tool changing, automatic measurement, automatic calibration, and other functions. Traditional machine tool screws require manual operation and adjustment.

Compared with traditional machine tool screws, modern CNC machine tool screws have advantages such as high processing precision, fast processing speed, and high automation, but they also require higher cost investment and technical support.
