Torque Limiters
Torque Limiters
The Torque Limiter is a protective device that limits torque transmitted in a drive system. When torque demand exceeds a preset value as a result of shock loads, overloads or machine jams. It automatically re-engages when the overload is removed, no re-setting is required. It prevents machine damage and eliminates costly break down time. The torque limiter uses spring loaded friction surfaces for its operation. Slip torque is preset by adjustment 0 spring force. The torque limiter can be used with sprocket, gear or flange, as the center member is clamped between two friction facings.
