Screw Jack Lift Table

Project Timeline

Jan 2024 - Feb-2024

OVERVIEW

This project involved the 3D modeling and functional design of a screw jack lift table, developed entirely in Creo Parametric. The objective was to create a mechanically stable lifting platform capable of precise vertical motion while sustaining load-bearing requirements. The design emphasized manufacturability, ease of assembly, and mechanical efficiency, integrating key concepts of power transmission and structural rigidity.

HighlightS

Designed a fully parametric screw jack lift table model in Creo Parametric with realistic mechanical motion.
Applied design principles of lead screw mechanisms and bearing-supported shafts for smooth vertical translation.
Conducted geometric and motion verification to ensure alignment stability and minimize off-axis deflection.
Optimized the platform for balanced load distribution and reduced frictional losses in screw-nut engagement.
Developed an assembly-ready design with proper constraints, mechanical joints, and motion simulations.
