Precision Torque Limiter with Clamping Hub
R+W torque limiters provide inexpensive insurance with little effect on machine performance. Utilizing a patented preload internal to it’s ball-detent mechanism, R+W torque limiters are all backlash free and highly responsive, with the ability to completely disconnect the drive and driven components in under 3msecs. Disengagement torque can be adjusted in the field, and several […]
Expanded Line of Servo Insert Couplings
The SERVOMAX line of precision elastomer insert couplings from R+W has been expanded to include both smaller and larger sizes as well as enhanced mounting options. The R+W SERVOMAX utilizes secondary heat treatment of the injection molded polyurethane insert to smooth out inconsistencies in the driving surfaces, allowing for a smooth fit and higher repeatability.
