ABSTRACT:
A precision drive assembly for the table (b 10) of a machine tool incorporates a screw (12) and floating ball nut (14). The nut is supported by a pair of rods (18,20) which, in turn, are connected to a bracket (26) mounted on the table. The nut is prevented from rotating about its axis by a torque arm (38) extending from the side of the nut and anchored to a bracket (52) attached to the table. Because of this arrangement the nut may move sideways or vertically without substantially altering its linear position.
