What kind of motion do you imagine when you hear the word "Rotary Damper" or "Torque Limiter"?

When you want to know about the motion of the products, you may encounter the following problems:

- Difficulty of visualizing the motion of the products
- How to use products
- Other usages, besides those already known
- Too many technical terms
- Difficult to understand
- Comparison before and after installation 


Our new content "Applications" page solves these problems.

On the Applications page, you will find GIF animations that show the motion of each product.

With these GIF animations, you can easily imagine the motion of the product, as they show examples of common problems with everyday items.

For instance, glasses that have been broken as a result of over-tightening.
This animation shows that the torque limiter solves this problem: 








You can see many other GIF animations on our applications page.

One-way clutch also called one-way bearing is a machine element component that locks up in one direction and allows free movement for the opposite direction.
Our clutches have been used in a variety of industries, but most especially in paper-feeding mechanisms of automated office equipment.

Today we would like to introduce our product bi-directional no-back clutch SR2.


>>Movie

Utilizing SR2, by applying a light touch it is even possible to adjust the height of a heavy object, and to lock the object at any position.


SR2 has two functions which can realize the aforementioned motion:

①To conduct driving from input shaft to output shaft
②To lock the input from the output shaft, if the driving isn’t applied


You can install this lifting and keeping mechanism in applications such as adjustable tables, handicap sinks, and indoor clothes-drying hangers.





TOK has 30+ years' experience of providing one-way clutches/bearings.
SR2 was designed using these technologies, resulting from our customers' requests.

By using our accumulated technology to meet customer requirements, TOK is now developing the new product line “SR series."

We will introduce other SR series products via the newsletter.
