An elevator type lift is being designed to raise a load up to 5,000pounds between floors. Two square-thread lead screws, 1.5 inches in (major) diameter, are used for this application. Determine the torque required to raise this lift if the moving part of the elevator weighs 800 pounds and the coefficient of friction is assumed to be 0.15. For the elevator described, find the efficiency and power required if each lead screw is driven at 175 rpm. Verify if this is self locking.

Power Transmission Elements

It is defined as the energy transfer from one location to another location. The energy will start moving from the energy generation source to the energy applied position to obtain the work output. From this method, a large amount of electric energy moves from the power station to various electrical substations.
