Rotational to linear movement
Rotational to linear movement
(OP)
Which is the best screw thread to transfer torque into a linear motion? Trapezoidal, Acme or something like that? It will be used several times, so friction must be small such that the thread lasts for some time. The bolt is approximately 30mm diameter.

Have you looked at the lead screw on a lathe or the threads on the screw in a vice.

What's the best motorized vehicle? Miata, bulldozer or something like that? I need it to have an engine and be able to drive both forward and backward.
In all seriousness, we will need a bit more detail to give a meaningful answer.

Speed (rotational/linear)
Available torque input
Required force output
Load
Vertical/horizontal
Required positional accuracy.
What does "Several" mean? 15 times in lifetime, or 3x/sec?
What are the operating conditions? Heat, contamination, liquids, cleanliness requirements?
Required lifetime?
