The positive (ratcheting)
SIKUMAT® SG torque limiters are precision safety devices for machines and installations. They protect drives from overloads by a ball-based ratcheting action, combining precise triggering with automatic re-engagement and an integrated fixed bearing for stable mounting.
Advantages- Very high response accuracy through the ball principle
- Integrated fixed bearing for mounting stability
- Keyway in the connecting flange for maximum torque transmission
- Calibrated micro-adjustment of torque setting possible, even after installation
- Cost-effective solution for precision overload protection
Function- When the preset limit torque is reached the SIKUMAT® ratchets to prevent further torque transmission
- After the overload condition is removed the SIKUMAT® automatically re-engages
- An overload can be signalled via a proximity switch to stop the drive or trigger other control functions
