Metric Machine Screw Jacks

5 to 500 kN load capacity. Metric Machine Screw Jacks are manufactured to the same high quality standards and include all of the same features and benefits as the standard line of actuators. Metric Machine Screw Actuators offer positive mechanical action, precise positioning, and uniform lifting speeds. Standard configurations include upright or inverted units with translating or rotating lifting screws, and top plate, threaded, or clevis ends.

Performance Table Instructions 
When reviewing and Duff-Norton Actuator Performance Specification Table, as part of the process of selecting the best-suited actuator for your application, there are several important worm-gear ratios to consider.
Standard Ratio - is frequently chosen when higher speeds and efficiency ratings are desired.
Optional Ratio - is frequently chosen when the application requires higher lifting capacities, lower speeds, or to ease the use of a handwheel.
Numeric Ratio - is frequently chosen for applications requiring fine adjustments, higher lifting capacities, lower speeds, the easy use of a handwheel, self locking applications, and also offers the benefit of an even number of worm input turns per inch of stroke.

Note: For loads from 25% to 100% of actuator capacity, torque requirements are approximately proportional to the load. Raises, measured in increments
of 25mm, are available up to 6.1 meters, depending on lifting screw diameter and available bar stock length.
