The present work deals with the design of a belt drive scissor lifting table to be install on platforms, called skillet, that constitute a typical line of handling on which the operator can stay and proceed to assembly, with times established by the product manufacturing. The aim of this work is to design a new lifting table with the cheapest actuation commercially available, simple and able to respond to the functional requirements, in order to replace two commercial lifting tables actually in use on the skillets along the handling line. In order to satisfy these requirements, the design has involved two different analysis: a dynamic motion analysis and a structural analysis.
