Lead Screw Calculations for Torque, Load Capacity Force | WM Berg
Torque to Move a Load Formula. Formula: (T) = (F x L) / (2 x M x E) Where: F = Load. L = Lead. E = Efficiency (consult Berg Engineering Department for efficiency values) M = Coefficient of friction for thread interface. When the lead screw is in a vertical (rather than horizontal) orientation you may also need to account for the force of ...
