More Information

The ambient temperature is a key parameter for the design of screw jacks. Deviations from the standard range must be taken into account, as they influence operation and the heating of the components.

Which ambient temperature is considered standard?

The standard ambient temperature is in the range of:

  • 20 °C to 25 °C

Deviations from this must be specified.

Which ambient temperatures require special attention?

The following ambient temperatures must be considered:

  • below 10 °C
  • above 40 °C

These influence the design and operating behavior.

How does temperature affect operation?

During operation, heating of the components occurs:

  • heating at the gearbox
  • higher heating at the screw

The screw can reach a significantly higher temperature than the gearbox.

Why is ambient temperature relevant for the design?

The ambient temperature influences:

  • heating during operation
  • the design of the components

It must therefore be considered during enquiry and order.
