Product catalog summary
Introduction
RINGSPANN Overload Clutches are mechanical safety devices that disconnect the output from the input when a preset limit is reached, preventing damage and minimizing downtime. These clutches are crucial for maintaining productivity in automated systems by protecting against overloads.
Torque Limiters
SIKUMAT® Torque Limiters are precision safety devices available in various designs to meet specific needs:
  • With screw faces: Suitable for heavy-duty conditions.
  • With double rollers: Ensures high consistency of limit torque.
  • With balls: Offers high response accuracy and backlash-free torque transmission.
  • With single rollers: Versatile for universal applications.
Friction Torque Limiters
Available in two designs:
  • RIMOSTAT® Torque Limiters: Provide high torque consistency during frequent slipping.
  • Belleville Spring Torque Limiters: Cost-effective solutions.
Force Limiters
Designed to transmit forces up to a certain size in both directions without play. They automatically re-engage after an overload is cleared and can be equipped with a proximity switch for early warning.
Overview of Overload Clutches
The document provides a detailed overview of various SIKUMAT® and RIMOSTAT® series, highlighting features such as re-engagement methods, backlash-free operation, and torque consistency.
Technical Specifications
Each series, such as SIKUMAT® SC, SCE, and SCL, is detailed with technical data including torque settings, speed ranges, and dimensions. The document also includes ordering examples and installation notes.
Proximity Switches
Proximity switches indicate overloads non-contactly, featuring PNP-Transistor output, IP67 protection, and operating within a temperature range of -25° to +75°C.
Conclusion
RINGSPANN offers a comprehensive range of overload clutches and torque limiters, providing solutions for various industrial applications with a focus on safety, reliability, and efficiency.
Specifications and Calculations
The document provides guidelines for converting the old Technical Standard System using a formula where J = 0.25 · GD², with GD² entered as kpm². It discusses the average starting torque MLa, which varies based on the machine type. Key symbols and calculations for slipping period and friction power are outlined, including the selection process based on required torque load.
Torque Limiters and Friction Power
The document details the calculation of RIMOSTAT® Torque Limiters, emphasizing the importance of ensuring the selected torque limiter's permissible friction power (Pzul.) exceeds the occurring friction power (Pa). It provides a formula for calculating Pa and discusses safety devices to limit slipping time, such as speed monitors and thermal motor monitoring units.
Force Limiters
The document describes the operation of Force Limiters, which prevent excessive forces from damaging machinery. Features include high response accuracy, automatic re-engagement, and maintenance-free operation. The Force Limiter can disengage when preset limits are exceeded, with options for non-contact proximity switches to signal disengagement.
Assembly and Operation
Illustrations and descriptions explain the assembly and operation of RINGSPANN Force Limiters, highlighting the adjustment of disengaging force through washers and the importance of maintaining operating force below maximum limits.
Technical Data and Dimensions
Technical specifications for various Force Limiter models are provided, including dimensions, maximum disengaging force, and stroke engagement travel. Accessories like proximity switches are also discussed.
Questionnaires for Selection
The document includes questionnaires to assist in selecting appropriate RINGSPANN Torque and Force Limiters, considering factors like machine type, installation conditions, and required torque or force limits.
Global Contact Information
Contact details for RINGSPANN offices worldwide are provided, covering regions such as Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas.

Introduction Overload Clutches The more comprehensive the automation of machines and installations, the safer their operational function needs to be. Blockages or overloads should never be cause for the destruction of operationally important components. Stoppages must be kept to a minimum so that the production process continues as quickly as possible and without costly repairs. After all, shorter downtimes mean higher productivity. RINGSPANN Overload Clutches are mechanical safety devices which disconnect the output from the input when a preset limit value has been reached. Thus they protect...

Ratcheting SIKUMAT® SC … with screw faces Advantages • Excellent robustness through surface contact during the disengaging process – therefore maximum life • Fully enclosed with integral bearing – therefore maintenance-free • Adjustment of limit torque setting according to the number of active springs – not through modification of spring pressure The Screw Face Principle Torque transmission is effected through screwshaped radial serrations in the input and output part, which are pressed together by spring force. Like the thread sides of a screw have edge contact with the nut during turning, so...

Proximity switch for Ratcheting SIKUMAT® with screw faces Proximity switch with plug connection Attaching plug, 90º, incl. 2 m PVC cable Technical Data The proximity switch’s response to an overload is to react on the switching disc located internally. During normal operation the proximity switch is closed, the yellow LED is illuminated. The switching disc moves as the preset limit torque is reached. The proximity switch opens and the yellow LED goes out. A speed-dependent switching sequence is triggered at the output end of the limit sensor. Operating voltage: Max. switching current: Internal...

Ratcheting SIKUMAT® SG … with balls Advantages • Very high response accuracy through the ball principle • Integrated fixed bearing • Keyway in connecting flange for maximum load capacity • Calibrated micro adjustment of torque setting possible, even post-installation • Cost effective The Ball Principle The torque is transmitted via balls which are pressed into detents via Belleville springs. When the preset limit torque has been reached the balls rise out of their seatings and slot into the nearest respective detent – until the overload has been eliminated. This characteristic, together with...
