What is structure of coil spring torque limiter?

A coil spring is press-fitted in the sleeve, and when it turns, it slides and generates torque. The more it tightens a coil spring, the more it generates torque, but the more loosen coil springs, the lower it generates torque.






Advantages of using a coil spring torque limiter compared with a magnet torque limiter!
1.       Light Weight
2.       Compact Size
3.       Competitive Price

What’s Torque Limiter?

Torque limiter is a device that cuts off torque transmission when overload is applied. It is also called slip clutch. By preventing excessive rotation of the spindle, it prevents overload damage to the driven shaft and related to equipment.

TOK manufactures 2 types of torque limiters :
l  Spring Type using friction / resistance
Ø  Max. torque: 4kgf・cm
Ø  Max. allowable rotation speed: 400min-1
Ø  Life cycle time: 1 Mio. cycles

TLD4 series                                       TLD7 series

     


l  Magnet Type using magnetic force
Ø  Max. torque: 0.6kgf・cm
Ø  Max. allowable rotation speed: 2,000min-1
Ø  Life cycle time: 10 Mio. cycles

TLEU series
