Mechanical Positioning
Enzfelder Screw Jack
Enzfelder Screw Jacks, engineered in Germany, are mechanical positioning devices designed for safe, precise lifting and lowering of heavy loads in industrial and architectural applications. Using lead or ball screws, they convert rotary motion into controlled linear movement. Self-locking options allow maintenance of position without a brake, and corrosion-resistant models support harsh or outdoor environments. Multiple mounting and drive configurations allow integration into diverse lifting platforms, conveyors, test rigs, solar panels, and more.
Key Features
- Handle loads from a few kN up to several hundred kN
- Self-locking lead screw versions (hold load with power off)
- Corrosion-resistant options for outdoor/washdown use
- Upright, inverted, and double jack configurations available
- Robust, low-maintenance, precision construction
