Robin explains it very well but a picture paints a thousand words.!!
Pics below show ballscrew with fixed end on right and a floating end on left, you will see fixed end as threads on ballscrew and the block is wider than the floating end because it has 2 angular contact bearings working togehter to handle the axial loads. The fixed end has just a normal bearing which is allowed to move inside the mounting block if any thermal expansion happens, it is still attached to the ballscrew via a small circlip so it can't fall off.
Simplizzz really.!!
