What is the output from differential screws when pitch of the two screws is 12mm and 8mm? Also the nut is rotated by applying a force of 120N at a radius of 300mm and the two screws remain stationary. The torque of raising and lowering for the two screws is 5k N-mm and 2.5k N-mm where k is the effective axial weight on the screw.
