Abstract
A ball screw includes a screw having a primary spiral groove. A first nut unit includes a first nut and first balls. The first nut has a first spiral groove. The first balls are located in the first spiral groove and contact the inner surface of the first spiral groove by a first contact angle. A second nut unit includes a second nut and second balls. The second nut has a second spiral groove. The second balls are located in the second spiral groove and contact the inner surface of the second spiral groove by a second contact angle which is different from the first contact angle. When a first wearing trace is formed along the screw by the first balls, the first nut unit is replaced with the second nut unit. A second wearing trace is formed along the screw and not overlapped with the first wearing trace.
