Trapezoidal Screw: This is the core part of the trapezoidal screw, usually a metal rod with trapezoidal threads. The cross-section of a trapezoidal thread is trapezoidal in shape, hence its name. The threads on the screw usually include a ramp that allows the screw to push against the mating nut as it rotates, thereby achieving linear motion. Nut: The nut is a component that matches the thread of the trapezoidal screw, usually made of metal or plastic. The inside of the nut has a thread structure that matches the threads of the screw, allowing it to move linearly along the screw as it rotates. The design and manufacture of the nut can affect the performance of the lead screw, such as accuracy, load capacity and smoothness of motion.
