    How does 2 screws same length give extra travel.? Edit: Ok re -read under stand now 2 ballnuts in parallel is less length than 2 nuts in series.! But still bad idea as it will be quite hard to ensure preload is correct to give zero backlash.

    Unless your spinning the ballscrew at very very high speed then at this length vibration shouldn't be problem if supported at both end. If your really bothered then use fixed bearings at both ends and tension the screw.
    Personally I would just use fixed at both ends with tension and double ballnuts, this will be more than enough.

    John I don't think Boyan is trying to use ballnuts to increase strength just lessen backlash and vibration/whip on screws.!
