| Description | One of the typical applications
of screw mechanisms is the effort-saving devices. And the screw presses
are a representative application of effort-saving devices. The fundamental
principle of the screw presses is, via the screw motion, to convert a
small input torque as an extremely large output force. For the shown design,
this screw press is constructed with a screw and a frame. On the lower
end of the screw, a press plate is attached to the screw and the workpiece
can be placed under the press plate to wait for pressing. When a torque
is inputted into the screw, the screw will output a translational motion,
which forces the press plate pressing the workpiece in a very large force. |
