Product Tags

Features (Model A – Travelling Screw):

  • Intermittent Duty Cycle: Ideal for applications where the screw jack operates intermittently.
  • Lubrication: Long-life synthetic grease lubricated worm gear ensures durability.
  • Precision Worm Gearbox: ZI involute profile for high precision.
  • Gearbox Ratios: From 1:4 to 1:36.
  • Monobloc Housing: Compact and robust, designed for strength and durability.
  • Input Speed: Up to 1500 rpm.
  • Screw Type: Acme screw drive with 1 or 2 starts.
  • Available Sizes: 14 sizes, with screw diameters ranging from Ø18 mm to Ø160 mm.
  • Load Capacity: From 5 kN to 1000 kN.

Accessories (Model A):

  • Stroke Length Limit Device: Magnetic or inductive proximity sensors for stroke control.
  • Position Control: Incremental or absolute encoders available for precise positioning.
  • Motor Compatibility: Prepared for IEC standard motors, AC/DC motors, and brushless servomotors.
  • Housing Options: Threaded tapped holes or through holes for versatile mounting.
  • Safety Features: Stop nut to prevent over-travel, protective bellows, anti-turn device, and safety nut.
  • Special Options: Stainless steel attachments (AISI 303, 304, 316), temperature-specific lubricants, and food industry-safe lubricants.

Features (Model B – Travelling Nut):

  • Intermittent Duty Cycle: Also suitable for intermittent operation.
  • Lubrication: Long-lasting synthetic grease for worm gear lubrication.
  • Precision Gearbox: High accuracy with ZI involute profile.
  • Gearbox Ratios: From 1:4 to 1:36.
  • Housing: Compact, robust design with monobloc construction.
  • Input Speed: Up to 1500 rpm.
  • Screw Type: Acme screw drive with 1 or 2 starts, but uses a travelling nut design.
  • Available Sizes: 14 standard sizes, Ø18 mm to Ø160 mm acme screws.
  • Load Capacity: From 5 kN to 1000 kN.

Accessories (Model B):

  • Position Control: Incremental or absolute encoders for precision.
  • Motor Mounting: Compatible with IEC standard motors, AC/DC, and brushless servomotors.
  • Housing Options: Threaded tapped holes or through holes for mounting flexibility.
  • Safety Features: Protective bellows, trunnion mount, safety nut, and acme thread wear-level check.
  • Special Options: Stainless steel attachments, special lubricants for high/low temperatures, and food industry-compatible lubricants.

Common Applications:

These Acme screw jacks are ideal for applications in harsh environments, such as water gates, paper-making machines, and industries requiring high reliability and performance.
