machine worm gear screw jack in trapezoid screw jacks
Trapezoidal Lead Screws
Broad, strong Acme threads make these screw jacks better than ball screw jacks for heavy loads, intermittent positioning applications, and where vibration is present. Screw jacks come assembled, threaded, and ready for hookup. Connect a motor or hand-crank shaft to the screw jack shaft to lift, hold, position, and level loads.
Travel distance per turn, also known as screw lead, is the distance a load moves with one revolution of the shaft.
