Torque limiters
ENEMAC safety couplings reliably minimise costly repairs and machine downtimes thanks to sophisticated torque limitation (overload protection). In the event of a malfunction, the drive train is mechanically interrupted within a very short time and destructive inertia forces and torque peaks are safely switched off. Backlash-free, precise torque transmission, infinitely adjustable disengagement torques and automatic re-engagement are characteristic of ENEMAC torque limiters. They can be used in all areas of mechanical and plant engineering, for both direct and indirect drives.
for indirect drives
ENEMAC safety couplings for indirect drives offer a wide range of types and reliably protect your drive against overload. Indirect drives are characterised by the fact that the motor and output elements are not located on a common axis. The drive shaft is offset parallel to the output shaft. The torque is transmitted via belts, gears or chains, depending on the requirements and the magnitude of the torque.
For more demanding environments, ENEMAC also offers many safety couplings as corrosion-protected versions. Using special hardening processes, the main components of the torque limiters are nitrocarburised or gas-nitrided and then oxidised. The disc springs used are coated and the balls and ball bearings are made of stainless steel. This makes these clutch types suitable for many outdoor applications and wherever moisture could become a problem.

for direct drives
ENEMAC safety couplings for direct drives (motor and output shaft are located on one axis) transmit the motor torque directly to the output element. At the same time, they protect the complex and expensive systems from overload in the event of a fault, thus preventing costly repairs and downtime.
Torque limiters for direct drives consist of a safety part with a disengaging mechanism and an equalising element, metal bellows coupling or elastomer coupling, which compensates for misalignment between the drive and output shafts.
