    As said, i made some assumptions.
    1) the root diameter.
    2) fixing method.

    The root diameter is the smallest diameter on the actual screw and 10mm lead ballscrews of this size normally have large...

    Why do you need such large diameter ball screws?
    Also what motors are you thinking of using? you say 25kgf motors, but kgf is not a measure of torque, do you mean kg-cm?
