A ball screw device includes a number of bearing members received between a ball nut and a screw shaft, and an image device engaged into the bore of the ball nut, and directed toward the screw shaft but spaced from the screw shaft for taking an image of the screw shaft and for viewing a changing of the inner thread of the screw shaft and for allowing the users to change or to replace the worn out ball nut and/or the worn out screw shaft and/or the worn out bearing members right away or at the best time. A processor device may be coupled to the image device for processing the images taken by the image device. A displayer may display the images, and a warning device may generate a warning signal when the screw shaft has been worn out.
