I am working on a new machine and want to reduce backlash as much as possible without resorting to double ball nuts. I have some thompson ballscrew stock and nuts and intend to use oversize balls in them.For you guys that are using oversize balls, how are you determining how much oversize to use for the ball bearings? Is it a trial and error, a formula someone has devised, or other? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John B
