 INTRODUCTION

A leadscrew (or lead screw), also known as a power screw or

translation screw, is a screw used as a linkage in a machine, to
translate turning motion into linear motion. Because of the
large area of sliding contact between their male and female
members, screw threads have larger frictional energy losses
compared to other linkages. They are not typically used to
carry high power, but more for intermittent use in low power
actuator and positioner mechanisms. Leadscrews are
commonly used in linear actuators, machine slides (such as in
machine tools), vises, presses, and jacks. Leadscrews are a
common component in electric linear actuators.
 TYPES OF POWER SCREWS

Square thread:
are named after their square
geometry. They are the most
efficient, having the least friction,
so they are often used for screws
that carry high power. But they are
also the most difficult to machine,
and are thus the most expensive.
 TYPES OF POWER SCREWS

Acme thread:
Acme threads have a 29° thread
angle, which is easier to machine
than square threads. They are not as
efficient as square threads, due to
the increased friction induced by the
thread angle. Acme threads are
generally also stronger than square
threads due to their trapezoidal
thread profile, which provides
greater load-bearing capabilities.
 TYPES OF POWER SCREWS

Buttress threads:
Buttress threads are of a
triangular shape. These are used
where the load force on the
screw is only applied in one
direction. They are as efficient as
square threads in these
applications, but are easier to
manufacture.
 APPLICATION OF POWER SCREW

Scaffolding screw jack

Scaffolding, also called scaffold or staging, is a temporary structure used to support a work
crew and materials to aid in the construction, maintenance and repair of buildings, bridges
and all other man-made structures. Scaffolds are widely used on site to get access to heights
and areas that would be otherwise hard to get to. Unsafe scaffolding has the potential to
result in death or serious injury. Scaffolding is also used in adapted forms for formwork and
shoring, grandstand seating, concert stages, access/viewing towers, exhibition stands, ski
ramps, half pipes and art projects.
 APPLICATION OF POWER SCREW

Scaffolding screw jack

Solid screw jack is made by the solid steel rod with
dia.37.5mm after rolling the thread. Hollow screw
jack is made by O.D 38x5mm or 5.5mm Stainless
steel tube.
The jack nut is made by cast steel and to hold O.D
48.3mm scaffolding tube or O.D 60.3mm Shoring
scaffold tube. Base plate is made by 6-8mm carbon
steel.
