Desired Bolt Head or Thrust Bearing Desired Required: Coefficients of Friction

This document contains a spreadsheet for calculating lifting and lowering forces from a screw. It lists inputs like motor torque, speed, screw dimensions, coefficients of friction, and efficiencies. Formulas are provided to calculate the output forces both with and without a thrust bearing based on the inputs.
