Voith AutoSet coupling with controlled slip and automatic reset

Controlling the slip and automatically resetting to improve performance and minimize production stoppages, this process-improving torque limiting coupling handles dynamic torque peaks of short duration safely and without releasing. The AutoSet reduces high torque peaks by slipping up to 180°. If the torque peak has a longer duration, the coupling will release entirely thereby limiting the torque.

Design features
*Ensures continuous production due to torque limitation without disengagement
*Automatic resetting of slip angle
*Complete disengagement during a long peak event
*Automatically resets itself to the pre-set torque limit after a longer overload/complete blockage

Benefits
*Improves production, as no resetting is needed for short peaks
*Lower maintenance cost with no manual resetting needed
*Less investment cost, as no additional equipment is needed
*Continuous operation, even during an overload, improves production uptime
