        abstract = {This research focuses on the design and development of a lifting machine that operates using a lead screw mechanism. The primary objective is to lift a 100 kg load — specifically a power panel — from a lower position onto a conveyor belt at a height of 4 to 5 feet, commonly used in automated systems. The lifting system incorporates a lead screw-driven mechanism supported by a ball table to facilitate the horizontal sliding of the power panel. The methodology includes conceptual design, part selection based on manufacturing standards, and structural analysis through simulation.
A static structural simulation was performed to evaluate the system under varying loads (50 kg, 100 kg, and 150 kg). The results showed maximum von Mises stresses of 53.06 MPa, 128.9 MPa, and 156.1 MPa, respectively. Corresponding displacements were 0.2070 mm, 0.4243 mm, and 0.6420 mm. The factor of safety (FOS) based on von Mises stress was found to be 4.7 at 50 kg, 1.9 at 100 kg, and 1.6 at 150 kg. These results validate the structural stability and load-handling capacity of the design under the intended working conditions.},
