technical data linear actuator Linispeed Jack Allowable Buckling Load

Allowable buckling load table

  • ・When using a jack under compressive load, use this graph to determine the jack frame size for the buckling load. The buckling selection graph takes into account a buckling safety factor of SF=4.
    • (1) Select the distance L between the load points from the installation conditions shown in the diagram below. (Please contact us for installation conditions other than those shown in the diagram below.)
    • (2) Select the jack frame number from the intersection of the load W per jack (vertical axis) and the distance between the application points (horizontal axis).
  • - Avoid applying lateral loads. The buckling selection graph on the right does not take lateral loads into consideration.
  • - If the device is designed so that the screw shaft is subjected to tensile load during installation, it will be economical and will not buckle.

  • Note)
  • 1. The line ---- on this graph shows an example where the load W is 20 kN and the distance between the load points is 900 mm in the above installation state.
    This graph assumes a buckling safety factor of sf=4, and in this case, the SJ030H jack can be selected, which satisfies the intersection of the vertical and horizontal axes.
  • 2. If detailed consideration is required, please check the calculation formula below.

Distance between load points: L (distance from installation surface to load mounting surface)

SJ015H SJ030H SJ050H
Table-shaped End fitting (M) 25mm 33mm 33mm
I-shaped End fitting (I) 50mm 75mm 80mm
X dimension (MIN) 187mm 202mm 236mm

When using a table type or I-type End fitting, add the length of each end shape to the actual stroke.

Example: When using an I-type End fitting with a stroke of 500 mm for the SJ030H.
500 + 277 = 777mm

Note)
When attaching a customer-supplied End fitting, add the X dimension (MIN) and the length of End fitting to the actual stroke. Note that the X dimension does not include the 32 mm screw length for attaching End fitting to the screw shaft end.

Allowable buckling load calculation formula

The allowable buckling load of the jack's screw shaft can be calculated as follows:

PCR = m× d2 L 2

Make sure that PCR > W × Sf.

PCR: Allowable buckling load N

d: Thread root diameter mm

m: Support coefficient (20×10 4)

L: Distance between points of action Note) mm

W: Load per jack N

Sf: Buckling safety factor (generally 4)

Allowable buckling calculation example

SJ030H-TUT8M (stroke 800mm) load (W) 24500N,
In the installed state [base fixed - shaft end fixed (table type End fitting)]
Calculate the PCR when using

PCR = 20×10 4 ×(30.7 2 /1035) 2
= 165845N
W×Sf = 24500×4 (considered at sf = 4)
= 98000N compared to
PCR > W×sf
165845 > 98000 ...OK

*L = 1002 + 33 = 1035mm

ST800mm X dimension: 1002mm

Table End fitting: 33mm

Lateral load

Linispeed Jack cannot withstand loads other than those in the axial direction.

If a lateral load is applied, please install a guide as shown in the diagram on the right to prevent the lateral load from acting directly on the jack.
