INCH AND METRIC WORm GEAr SCREW JACKS TECHNICAL NOTES
INCH BALL SCREW JACKS

Inch Ball Screw Jack Technical Notes PDF

1) The recommended maximum speed is 3000 rpm provided the recommended horsepower and temperature are not exceeded.

2) Input torque is shown as torque to lift one pound of load. Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown. For loads less than 25% of rated loads add tare drag torque.

3) Maximum allowable horsepower ratings are based on a 35% duty cycle. For operation at higher duty cycles or repeated use over any segment of the total travel, temperature must be monitored and remain less than 200°F.

4) Overload capacity of the Ball Screw Jack is as follows: 10% for dynamic loads, 30% for static loads.

5) All Ball Screw Jacks can backdrive and require some means of holding the load, such as a brake on the motor. The product specification pages show holding torque values. Holding torque represents the amount of input torque required to restrain the load and does not indicate recommended brake size to bring dynamic load to stop.

6) All units are suitable for intermittent operation providing that the housing temperature including ambient is not lower than -20°F or higher than +200°F. Factory supplied grease in standard units will operate in this range. For higher or lower operating temperature ranges consult Nook Industries.

7) Accessories such as boots, limit switches, top plates and clevises are available.

8) Catalog dimensions are representative only and are subject to change without notice. For construction, use only certified prints.

9) Units are not to be used as personnel support or movement.

10) End-of-travel stops are not provided. * Tare drag torque need only be added if operating under 25% rated load.

Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown.

1) The recommended maximum speed is 1800 rpm provided the recommended horsepower and temperature are not exceeded.

2) Input torque is shown as torque to lift one pound of load. Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown. For loads less than 25% of rated loads add tare drag torque.

3) Maximum allowable horsepower ratings are based on a 25% duty cycle. For operation at higher duty cycles or repeated use over any segment of the total travel, temperature must be monitored and remain less than 200°F.

4) Overload capacity of the Machine Screw Jack is as follows: 10% for dynamic loads, 30% for static loads.

5) Machine Screw Jacks having gear ratios between 20:1 and 32:1, are self-locking and will hold loads without backdriving in the absence of vibrations. All other ratios may require a brake to prevent backdriving.

6) All units are suitable for intermittent operation providing that the housing temperature including ambient is not lower than -20°F. or higher than +200°F. Factory supplied grease in standard units will operate in this range. For higher or lower operating temperature ranges consult Nook Industries, Inc.

9) Units are not to be used as personnel support or movement.

10) End-of-travel stops are not provided.

* Tare drag torque need only be added if operating under 25% rated load. Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown.

1) The recommended maximum speed is 1800 rpm provided the recommended horsepower and temperature are not exceeded.

2) Input torque is shown as torque to lift one pound of load. Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown. Tare drag torque should be added for all loads.

3) Maximum allowable horsepower ratings are based on a 25% duty cycle. For operation at higher duty cycles or repeated use over any segment of the total travel, temperature must be monitored and remain less than 200°F.

4) Overload capacity of the Stainless Steel Machine Screw Jack is as follows: 10% for dynamic loads, 30% for static loads.

5) Stainless Steel Machine Screw Jacks having gear ratios between 20:1 and 32:1, are self-locking and will hold loads without backdriving in the absence of vibration. All other ratios may require a brake to prevent backdriving.

6) All units are suitable for intermittent operation providing that the housing temperature including ambient is not lower than -20°F. or higher than +200°F.

8) Catalog dimensions are representative only and are subject to change without notice. For construction, use only certified prints.

9) Units are not to be used as personnel support or movement.

10) End-of-travel stops are not provided. For greater capacity, specify a 17-4PH hardened worm.

* Tare drag torque need only be added if operating under 25% rated load.

Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown.

METRIC BALL SCREW JACKS

Metric Ball Screw Jack Technical Notes PDF

1) The recommended maximum speed is 3000 RPM providing the recommended horsepower and temperature are not exceeded.

2) Input torque is shown as torque to lift one kN of load. Starting Torque is 100% greater than torque shown. For loads less than 25% of rated loads add tare drag torque.

3) Maximum allowable horsepower ratings are based on a 35% duty cycle. For operation at higher duty cycles or repeated use over any segment of the total travel, temperature must be monitored and remain less than 95°C.

4) Overload capacity of the Metric ball Screw Jack is as follows: 0% for dynamic loads, 20% for static loads.

5) All Ball Screw Jacks can backdrive and require some means of holding the load, such as a brake on the motor. The product specification pages show holding torque values. Holding torque represents the amount of input torque required to restrain the load and does not indicate recommended brake size to bring dynamic load to stop.

6) All units are suitable for intermittent operation providing that the housing temperature including ambient is not lower than -30°C. or higher than +95°C. Factory supplied grease in standard units will operate in this range. For higher or lower operating temperature ranges consult Nook Industries.

7) Accessories such as boots, limit switches, top plates and clevises are available.

8) Catalog dimensions are representative only and are subject to change without notice. For construction, use only certified prints.

9) Units are not to be used as personnel support or movement.

10) End-of-travel stops are not provided. Starting torque is100% greater than torque shown.
