Question 3[10 marks]
a) A lead screw is being used on a lathe machine to advance the carriage of the lathe in time with the rotation of the spindle. The screw has an effective diameter of 45 mm and a lead 5 mm . the screw must exert an axial thrust of 1.0 KN for driving the carriage. An effort of 50 N is required to create the movement. Calculate the operating efficiency of the lead screw.
