It seems that my question has been misinterpreted I am looking for actual formulas that will help me determine the torque required to raise the jack (with the variables: vehicle weight 1000kg, pitch of screw thread 5mm). Norm thank you for pointing that out that could mean very low torque is...
Hi, I would like to know if anyone knows of any calculations as to find the torque required to operate a scissor jack for lifting a vehicle. The purpose of this exercise would be to find the required torque for an electric motor that would be capable of doing the job.
