ABSTRACT:
A lead screw for a linear actuator, which has a metal pipe having a helical projection resin-molded on its outer surface, and a ball for a pivot bearing welded to a distal end of the metal pipe, is disclosed together with a method of manufacturing the same. With the lead screw according to this invention, a slight positional deviation from the origin, which is caused at a high ambient temperature by thermal expansion of a resin material filled up in the metal pipe, can be prevented reliably. Linear movement upon rotation of a stepping motor can take place with high precision.
