Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9946847A1] An actuator comprises a housing (1, 10), a motor, an actuating member and a screw mechanism providing a linear movement of the actuating member with respect to the housing (1, 10) in response to a rotational movement of the motor, said screw mechanism comprising a screw (5, 16) and a nut (1, 17) at least one of which is rotatably supported with respect to the housing (1, 10) by means of a rolling element bearing (2, 11), said rolling element bearing (2, 11) having an inner raceway (6) and an outer raceway (6), as well as rolling elements which are in rolling contact with said raceways. At least one of the components of the screw mechanism, e.g. the screw (5, 16), nut (1, 17) or rollers (4, 16) and/or at least a component of the bearing (2, 11), e.g. the inner bearing ring or the outer bearing ring, comprises a surface part which is manufactured by means of a hard cutting operation, e.g. hard turning, hard milling, hard drilling, etc.
