Development of a screw driven mobile scissor lift table for radio antenna

Abstract

The design, analyze and fabrication of a screw-driven scissor lift with four levels elevated by one AC motor is being presented in the paper. The scissor was developed to lift a Jaybeam 300W Radio antenna. The device (scissor lift) was designed portable for easy of convinces by small buses or Van. A 3D cad model of the screw-driven scissor lift produced, before the design analysis of the Screw-driven scissor lift. A control unit was also developed to automatically control the movement of the lift via a proximity sensor. The machine is tested by mounting the Jaybeam antenna on the platform and lifting it to the maximum designed height successfully.
