Satellite roller screws has greater advantages over traditional ball screws, whereas satellite roller screws and ball screw are similar with the difference that the satellite roller screws consists of threaded rollers as load transfer rollers. For the same screw diameter, the satellite roller screws as compared to ball screw provide higher axial loads. The main advantage of the satellite roller screws is that their admissible dynamic and static load capacity is higher than that of ball screw. Apart from this, the static load of the satellite roller screws is 3 times greater and lifespan is 15 times longer than ball screws and it can support greater acceleration and rotate much faster. In addition, BRV and RV satellite rollers are designed in such a way that the mechanism can support two times the rotating speed as that of a ball screw and reach up to the acceleration of 3g. Moreover, satellite roller screws are available in different types such as standard planetary roller screw, inverted roller screw, recirculating roller screw and bearing ring roller screw. Furthermore, satellite roller screws are best fit in heavy operations and as a fact the lifespan of satellite roller screws compared to ball screws can be up to fifteen times longer. With such and several other advantages many end use industries such as oil & gas, automobile, aerospace, and steel manufacturers are now focusing on increasing use of satellite roller screws to increase.
In addition, the satellite roller screws market is split into wide number of satellite roller screws manufacturers and providers who are providing various types of roller screws that can be used for different end-use industries across the globe. Some of the key players in the global satellite roller screws market are AB SKF, Rollvis S.A., Bosch Rexroth AG, Creative Motion Control, Moog Inc., Power Jacks Limited, Kugel Motion Limited, Nook Industries Inc., August Steinmeyer GmbH and Schaeffler AG.

Below graph provides a comparative analysis of the value contribution for each of the segment for the years 2020 and 2028:
In 2020, the standard planetary roller screw segment led the overall satellite roller screws market in terms of market value accounting for over 32% of the global market. In standard planetary roller screw, both nut and screw has same multiple start thread, where, the start thread of the rollers match to the nut thread and this matched threads avoids axial movement among roller and nut as the rollers spin. Apart from this, the standard planetary roller screws are considered as replacement for pneumatics and are widely used in most of the end-use industries as compared to other roller screws and other ball screws. Moreover, this roller screws has long life, more compact and can reduce more number of parts in the system, hence widely used in different end-use industries. In addition, recirculating roller screws segment is expected to witness higher market share in the forecast period.
Global Satellite Roller Screws Market, By End-use Industry
Based on end-use industry, the satellite roller screws market is segmented into the following:
- Oil & Gas
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Steel Manufacturing
- Others
In 2020, the automotive segment led the overall satellite roller screws market in terms of market value accounting for over 27% of the global market. The satellite roller screws for automotive industry are designed to withstand harsh and tough environment of automotive vehicles and other motorsport vehicle, which also helps to meet different needs and requirements of other racing environments. Apart from this, the roller screws are used in most of the suspension systems of the automotive vehicles and are also used to minimize the jumps and bounce of the automotive wheels. Moreover, the satellite roller screws are employed in the braking system of the vehicles and in those vehicles which requires speedy linear motion. Furthermore, these roller screw are widely used in the robotic welding guns during chassis manufacturing process of the cars. In addition, automotive segment is expected to witness higher market share in the forecast period.
