    Many with ball screws also don't have end bearings as in BK type or angular contact. They are often just standard cheap n nasty deep grove bearings machined into the end plate with a very sloppy fit.!! so the end machining will be custom rather than a standard BK12, 15, etc type machined screw.

    Contact Fred at BST and give him the sizes and accurate dimensions of the machined end and he will make one for you.!
    -use common sense, if you lack it, there is no software to help that.
