In the machine design the bed with a mass of 250 kg is moved by a lead screw which has a square thread profile. The lead screw is 20 mm in diameter with a thread pitch of 4mm and is made from steel. The coefficient of friction between the lead screw and the bed saddle is 0.15. Calculate the operating efficiency of the lead screw.
