Torque-limiting couplings (TLC)
Our torque-limiting couplings are designed to withstand torque spikes such as those caused by the variable-frequency drives used in mills. They feature electronic slip detection and automatic resets to maintain driveline control and protection.
Features
- Resilience to torque spikes
- Engagement at 0 rpm
- Electronic control monitoring
- Overload detection
- Automatic disengagement
