Best lead screw - ball bearing mount system

@claustro said in Best lead screw - ball bearing mount system:
I can't understand the shaft collar and 15 degree angle bearing. What would be the advantages over thrust bearing and regular ball bearing like I did?
I realize now that your picture above shows the screw and shaft, without the coupler mounted.
A shaft collar:
An angular bearing is very similar to a regular deep groove, but the surfaces the balls contact are at a slight angle. They can take axial load, in one direction, and radial load. They seem to be a specialist bearing only available with tight tolerances and a high price.

@claustro Came across this, Instead of an intricate belt path, I just put 4 motors under my bed, one at each corner. Works lovely because it's super strong now as well.
