Tips: Friction vs. Sprocket Torque Limiter

Friction Torque Limiter: A friction torque limiter relies on a friction-based mechanism to protect machinery and equipment from excessive torque. It operates by creating controlled friction between its internal components, which slip when the torque exceeds a predetermined limit, disengaging the torque transmission. Friction torque limiters are known for their versatility and adjustability, allowing for precise control of torque levels in a wide range of applications.

Sprocket Torque Limiter: A sprocket torque limiter, on the other hand, is a type of torque limiter that uses sprockets and a chain to disengage torque when an overload occurs. It typically consists of two sprockets connected by a chain. When an overload or excessive torque is applied, the chain tension increases, causing the sprockets to separate and interrupt the torque transmission. Sprocket torque limiters are often used in applications where sprocket and chain drives are prevalent, providing protection against torque spikes and overloads in such systems.

In summary, while both types of torque limiters serve the common purpose of protecting machinery from damage due to excessive torque, they achieve this through different mechanisms: friction-based slippage for friction torque limiters and chain disengagement for sprocket torque limiters. The choice between the two depends on the specific requirements and characteristics of the machinery or system in which they are used.
