Planetary Screw Spindle

The spindle drives the whole planetary system. Its helical flights must be timed to the rollers — if the geometry drifts, the rollers load unevenly and wear accelerates on one side.

Machined and nitrided to drawing, supplied with or without the matching roller set.

Common Questions

Questions Buyers Ask About This Product

Spindle only, or the full set?

Spindle alone if your rollers and barrel measure within tolerance. We will tell you honestly which we recommend after seeing your measurements.

How is the timing verified?

Flight geometry is machined to the roller specification and checked before shipment; records ship with the part.

Can you copy from a worn spindle?

Yes, if the wear is even. Severely worn spindles need the drawing — send both if you can.
