Electronic overload protection has long been employed on industrial electric motors. In some cases, this internal protection may serve as a viable torque limiting mechanism. Many applications, however ...

Mechanical and electronic overload protection each has its place. Mechanical overload-protection devices, such as the EAS -Compact backlash-free, ball-detent torque-limiting clutch, can disconnect ...

With the EAS-reverse, Mayr Power Transmission has developed a new, disengaging torque limiter on which all functional processes can be automated through the drive. It is easy to handle, permits long ...

Drag torque in wet clutches arises from the viscous shearing of lubricants in the narrow gaps between clutch plates, and it represents a significant source of power loss in automotive and industrial ...

Republic Machine Inc., which makes single-shaft grinders in Louisville, Ky., is offering the Insta-Torque detection system that protects the drive train from jams in the shredding compartment. The ...
