Torque Limiter Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter India

Torque limiter - mechanical overload protection coupling by Kavitsu

A torque limiter protects a drive from overload. When the torque rises above a preset value, for example when a conveyor jams or a crusher meets tramp metal, the torque limiter slips and stops the excess torque from reaching the gearbox, motor and machine. Kavitsu Transmissions manufactures torque limiters in Satara, Maharashtra, to protect our own gearboxes and other drives.

A torque limiter costs a fraction of a gearbox repair, and it can prevent a long, costly shutdown.

Frequently Asked Questions – Torque Limiter

Spring pressure holds friction linings between the driving and driven parts. When the torque exceeds the set value, the linings slip, so the excess torque does not reach the machine.

Yes. The slip torque is set by adjusting the spring pressure to suit the drive's working load.

It is usually fitted between the gearbox and the driven machine, or between the motor and the gearbox, with a sprocket, pulley or coupling.
