Hello, everyone. I have to design a work desk for the company where I work. This counter is not intended for customers, but serves in the production department, such as indoor equipment.
This is a height-adjustable plate, on which to place the piece for processing. this plate must be adjusted in height, by means of a simple support screw and a hand-operated handle. the problem arises from the fact that the plate should not rotate, when the screw rotates, otherwise the piece that is rested on us would also rotate him and this is not good.
I would point out that there is already an old work bench like this, but 2 things do not convince me:
1_ the lifting screw is a special screw made specifically to lift loads with a trapezoidal thread, like a crick. instead I would like to replace it with a normal threaded bar m36x3, also for simplicity of processing and why more easily available.
2_ does not convince me at all the antirotation system of the plate, consisting of a tondino that prevents the rotation of the same, but it is a little elegant solution.
So I ask you two things:
1_ Can I use a normal m36x3 bar to lift the piece, which at most weighs 40kg, or would it be too hard to rotate the knob?
2_ Do you have any better, more elegant solution, to prevent the rooster from rising?

other information that I can tell you is that under the plate and under the piece there is a tray for the collection of liquids that can possibly come out of the piece, during the processing, because it is put in pressure with water.
