Screw Jack Systems provide comprehensive lifting and positioning design solutions for a wide selection of industries. Highly accurate and extremely dependable machine screw and ball screw jacks are matched with an intensive selection of drive, connection, motion control, safety, and safety components to supply a complete bundle from a single source.
We offers system design assistance, taking the guess work out of product selection. Our years of software experience assures that elements of the look process are considered. We also offer full assembly drawings, which provides time saving worth and guarantees the correct system components are built-into your design.
Worm Equipment Screw Jack systems are ruggedly designed and stated in standard models with load handling capacities from 1/4 ton to 100 tons. They might be used separately or in multiple plans. There are no "standard" travel lengths and all Worm Gear Screw Jack systems are built to specification.
The jack housings are made of ductile iron and proportioned to support the rated capacity of the unit. MJ, 1/4 ton, and 1/2 ton models have light weight aluminum housings.
Each Worm Gear Screw Jack incorporates an alloy metal worm which drives a high strength bronze worm gear (drive sleeve). The worm shaft is supported on antifriction tapered roller bearings with exterior seals provided to avoid loss of lubrication (sealed radial bearings on the MJ, 1/4 , 1/2, and 1 ton systems). The drive sleeve is definitely supported on antifriction tapered roller or ball thrust bearings. Rotation of the drive sleeve causes the lifting screw to translate or rotate, dependant on jack configuration.
The Inch and Metric Worm Gear Machine Screw Jacks incorporate an alloy or stainless worm which drives a high strength bronze worm gear (drive sleeve). The worm shaft is backed on anti-friction tapered roller bearings with exterior seals provided to prevent lack of lubrication. The drive sleeve is certainly supported on anti-friction tapered roller or ball thrust bearings. Rotation of the drive sleeve causes the acme thread lifting screw to translate or rotate, dependant on jack configuration.
The threads are precision formed, typically using Class 2-C (Centralizing) tolerances. Jack lift shaft business lead tolerance is approximately ±0.004" per foot.
Designed with state-of-the-art CAD and CAE systems and adhering to stringent production requirements, these screw jacks satisfy all the required safety, cost-efficiency, and toughness mandates of the application.
