Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 3408-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 39, Machine tools.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 3408-3:1992), which has been technically
revised.
ISO 3408 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ball screws:

Ball screws —
Part 3:
Acceptance conditions and acceptance tests
1 Scope
This part of ISO 3408 specifies the technical acceptance conditions for ball screws (see Figure 1) and, in
particular, the respective permissible deviations for the acceptance tests.
NOTE The actual design need not necessarily correspond to that shown in Figure 1.
The respective tests required will be agreed upon between the manufacturer and user.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced

4.1 Classification
The tests are graded in six standard tolerance grades (see Table 1) in conformance with ISO 286-2:1988,
Table 1.
4.2.1 Tolerances
Tolerances on specified travel, ep, for the useful travel, lu (tests E 1.1 and E 1.2), are taken directly from
ISO 286-2:1988, Table 1. Values of ep for useful travel, lu, of greater than or equal to 3 150 mm were
calculated be linear extrapolation (see Table A.1).
Tolerances on travel variation, vup, in micrometres, within useful travel lu were evaluated using the following
equations:
where lu is the geometrical mean, in millimetres, of the extreme lengths of each step of measured travel
given in Table A.1:
lu = lu max ⋅ lu min
4.2.2.1 General
To evaluate the actual mean travel deviation within the useful travel, either a mathematical method — precise
by its nature — or a graphical method — simple and quick and recommended as an approximation method
suitable for everyday evaluation — may be used.
NOTE The travel variation, vua, resulting from the mathematical method may not be the minimum travel variation.

ea = a + bγ
with
∑ γ i2 ⋅ ∑ ei − ∑ γ i ⋅ ∑ γ i ⋅ ei
a=
n ⋅ ∑ γ i2 − ∑ γ i ⋅ ∑ γ i
and
n ⋅ ∑ γ i ⋅ ei − ∑ γ i ⋅ ∑ ei
b=
n ⋅ ∑ γ i2 − ∑ γ i ⋅ ∑ γ i
where
ea is the actual mean travel deviation in relation to the specified or nominal travel, as appropriate;
γi is the angle of rotation (specified or nominal travel, as appropriate) corresponding to the ith
measuring point;
ei is the travel deviation (or travel) in relation to the specified or nominal travel for the angel of rotation
(or travel) corresponding to the ith measuring point;
The evaluation of the actual mean travel deviation from the travel deviation diagram is carried out as follows:
a) draw the tangents to the actual travel deviation curve at two ore more upper peaks (l1, l2, ...) and repeat
this procedure for the lower peaks (l3, ...);
b) determine the largest respective deviations (e1, e2, e3, ...) parallel to the ordinate, and select from these
the smallest deviation (e2 in the example);
c) draw a straight line through this point of minimum deviation that is parallel to the corresponding peak line
(l′2 parallel to l2 in the example).
The actual mean travel deviation, ea, is the centreline between these parallel lines (l2 and l′2). The bandwidth
within the useful travel, vua, is the distance between these parallel lines, e2, measured parallel to the ordinate.

5 Acceptance tests
5.1 General
The typical tolerance grades for positioning and transport ball screws are given in Table 2.
Table 2 — Typical tolerance grades for positioning and transport ball screws
Positioning 0–1–3–5
Transport 0 – 1 – 3 – 5 – 7 – 10
The test according to Table 3 shall apply, depending on the type of ball screw considered [positioning (type P)
or transport (type T) ball screw].
Tests and tolerances to the ball nut displacement are relative to the ball screw shaft.
A pitch-to-pitch measurement may be carried out using a measuring ball by touching the ball track of a non-
rotating ball screw shaft. For the measuring intervals, see Table A.2.
The travel variation v2π within 2π rad is determined over nine measurements (8 × 45°) per revolution, or
continuously within one thread (at the start, in the middle and at the end of useful travel), provided that this
has been the subject of special agreement.
