Say I use a piece of 16mm studding with a 1mm pitch.
So 1 full turn would move the studding 1 mm.
I tighten the nut with a 300mm spanner with a force of say 30Nm
Does that mean i get a clamping force of:
3.14 X 300 X 2 (max circumference of drive) to 1mm of movement -->1884 : 1
56520Nm or equivalent to a load of 56 00kg??? less losses and stretch etc
or do I multiply by 0.3?
