Thomson currently has two account systems - one for the website and CAD model downloads, and one for e-commerce. We understand that two logins is an inconvenience and are working to consolidate our systems into one login process. Until we’re able to consolidate the two logins, please follow these guidelines:
Central lubrication is a standard feature on the WM and MLSM units. The drive and guide systems are conveniently re-lubricated from a central point on the carriage. Whether by hand or automatically, maintenance is a simple matter.

A ball screw's maximum RPM (critical speed) is a function of its unsupported length. Using intermittent screw supports allows for long-length ball screw units with no
whipping effect. 3000 RPM input for ANY length. This allows for
tighter accuracies over long lengths that would otherwise have to be
done with a belt unit.
Ball screw supports are an interlocking nested design. The carriage travels, picking up and dropping off the screw supports at specific intervals.
