Can Screw Jacks Operate where Vibration is Present?

Screw Jacks will operate in areas with vibration, however the vibration may cause the lifting screw to creep or inch down under load. For applications involving slight vibration, select the higher of the worm gear ratios. Should considerable vibration be present, use a drive motor equipped with a magnetic brake, which will prevent the screw jack from self-lowering/back-driving.
