Vertical Ball Screw

Autoquip Vertical Ball Screw Mechanical Lift Tables

VBS Vertical Ball Screw scissors lifts offer dependable mechanical lifting solutions by supporting the scissors table and load from beneath and raising with a vertical ball screw actuator. Mechanical ball screws provide a high degree of precision and repeatability, and can be used in single or multiple screws to vary load capacity.

The ball screw actuator is mounted at the clevis end of the scissors lift, driven by a gear motor with instantaneous brake, and stabilized by the scissors leg assembly. The actuator can be mounted below grade to provide 4-sided deck access, or above grade if 3-sided deck access is acceptable. Vertical Ball Screw scissors lifts provide the most cost-effective and low-profile of all the mechanical scissors lift solutions. As with other mechanical lifts, predetermined work elevations can be programmed with the use of a transducer or encoder and a PLC motor controller.

Joints feature chrome-plated, 100,000 psi, ultimate-strength pins for premium load strength and long life.
Solid steel leg and added stiffeners provide optimal overall stability and straight, repeatable tracking of the rollers as the lift raises and lowers.
Minimum 1/4-inch-thick steel-reinforced platform minimizes deck deflection, maximizes load stability, and extends the life of the platform deck.
Vertical ball screws are very rigid and provide stable load support throughout the lift's travel.
Maintenance-free bearings at pivot points require no lubrication.
Minimum 3:1 structural factor of safety makes these lifts the most structurally sound lift in the industry.
Vertical ball screw actuator design is simple and easy to inspect and maintain.
Vertical ball screw actuator is the least noisy of all mechanical actuators - providing a more tolerable and productive work environment.
On-board maintenance devices enable maintenance crews to safely and effectively block open the scissors during inspection.
1 to 1 ratio of actuator stroke to lift travel provides a more repeatable and accurate programmed elevation stop.
Programmabl mechanical drive allows the lift to be called/sent to multiple pre-determined levels.
Stopped elevations are maintained indefinitely - a critical asset for alignment and precision applications.
Drive motors are rated for variable frequency drive control signals.
Travel limit switches are mounted in the lift base frame to prevent the mechanical actuator from overextending the stroke.
Autoquip offers an industry-best 2 year warranty on all parts as a promise that you've purchased the industry's most reliable lift.
