A roller screw system includes a spindle defining a longitudinal axis about which the spindle rotates. A nut at least partially radially surrounds the spindle. The nut is configured for longitudinal motion with respect to the spindle. At least one non-helically grooved roller is interposed radially between the spindle and the nut. A cage maintains the at least one roller in position radially between the spindle and the nut and supports the at least one roller for rotational motion. The nut is moved in longitudinally in a duty cycle responsive to transmission of rotational motion from the spindle to the at least one roller, and transformation of rotational motion of the at least one roller to longitudinal motion of the nut. A home position of the nut and a home position of the cage both move longitudinally after a predetermined number of duty cycles.
