tretterA special focus of Dr. Tretter form the torque ball sockets. These high-precision drive elements for torque transmission with simultaneous translational movement can be installed in the smallest of spaces. The ball rolling element is used in these drive elements, which takes over the transmission between the ball bushing and the shaft with ground grooves. Torque ball bushings are used in a similar way to spline shafts.

But they have the advantages that they can be adjusted without play on the ball size and can be increased by a corresponding bias their rigidity.

The manufacturer also offers a wide range of different versions of linear axes. This includes compact, rigid axles made of steel Ball Screwsn and with a maximum stroke length of 1 m. The portfolio also includes aluminum tables and axes, depending on the type, with roller or profile rail guides and Timing belts or ball screw drive. Aluminum axles usually have a maximum stroke length of 6 m, longer stroke lengths are achieved with split axles.
