Lead-Screw Type Lifter

A scissor lift employs a collapsible mechanism to achieve vertical elevation proportional to an input. These lifts are commonly used for lifting heavy loads safely and efficiently. The pantograph, a series of linked parallelograms with hinged intersections, provides the mechanical capability. By elongating the mechanism while preserving geometric integrity, scissor lifts achieve true vertical lift using equal-length components, ensuring consistent performance.
