I was wiping down some ballscrews that were given to me last night and while tilting one up, the nut ran off the end spilling the bearings on the floor. I picked all of them up but I am unsure if I have recovered all of them. My question is should I send the ballscrew and nut to one of the repair services to be reassembled, or is there an easy way to do this? I have three of these units that are 1/2 inch travel per turn and are 66 inches long. The screw diameter is 5/8 of an inch. I feel like such a dork, but I guess stuff happens. I look forward to hearing everyone's comments.
Thanks,
Ben
