Adjustable Torque Limiters |
|
Adjustable Torque Limiters play a significant part in today’s high speed and precise machinery where safety is an integral part of life. These are small, but vital piece of equipment, which prevent extra load or mis-positioning of important components. Comintec srl of Italy with several patents to their credit for design and production of Torque Limiters (also known as Safety Couplings) roll out an extensive selection – from a torque setting of 0.8 Nm to 2,800 Nm and bore diameters upto 140 mm. Although just 20 years in this highly specialized field, this dynamically ISO certified company can boast of a list of leading manufacturers of machinery, as their clients, all over the world. Versatile and compact, standard models can be broadly classified into : a) DSS – transmission using balls Recommended for applications where vibration free, uniform and homogenous transmissions are involved with maximum sensitivity for sudden torque variations. b) DSR – transmission using rollers. For general purpose equipments, conveyors, packaging (bottling, labeling), automation, etc., These models can also be expanded to accommodate positioning and uni-direction characteristics. c) DSF - Friction liner types Friction torque limiter (with replaceable friction liners) – compact and balanced with a capacity to accommodate sprockets, pulleys, gears Pneumatic limiters using pressure adjustment for torque variation is also a standard product, electromechanical switches, apart from a range of couplings. Specials form an integral part of COMINTEC to suit individual requirements, coatings for different environments, metal construction, etc.
GENERAL FEATURES: - Suitable in wet or oily environments.
- Precise adjustment of the torque through dynamically balanced radial ring nut.
- Disengagement with equidistant timing or 360° (45°, 60°, 90°, 120°, …).
- Possibility to combine a microswitch/proximity switch to stop motor, on overloading.
- Diate intervention for a response better than the electronic systems which acting on the motor electric current absorption, do not protect against instant impacts.
- Executed in steel (UNI EN 10083-84/98) and ground finished completely with adequate thermal/surface treatments, to guarantee reliability.
- New calibrating system with “H Dimension", where the intervention torque and the easy reading linear measure are associated. Comintec’s strength lies in the planned growth – which is visible from their success during the last decade. Heavily invested in research in developing new products and the latest machines for production of repetitive and perfect components, form the basic platform from which this company has progressed.
