Torque Limiters [TL Type]

TR Type

Torque Limiters (overload clutch)

Torque Limiters from Packam protect machines and systems from expensive overload damage. So-called overlaod clutches also help to increase output and productivity through a reduction in downtime.  A range of models is designed for all applications, with standard and custom trip torque capacities. The Packam overload clutches’ single-position reset function maintains accuracy and machine timing.

Custom Mechanisms [CM Type]

CM Type

Custom Mechanisms

High speeds and productivity rates required by every type of industry nowadays mean that components of intermittent motions in machinery must be driven at smooth, continuous, precise acceleration and speed.

Older technologies like the Geneva Mechanism have limitations and their use is consequently inadvisable today.

  • Uncontrolled motion – acceleration and deceleration
  • Dynamic shocks
  • High maintenance and running costs
  • Unknown time and transfer ratios

Packam mechanisms allow accurate design of motion characteristics that fully address the above requirements. These mechanisms are available in standard models or tailor-made to suit customers unique requirements.

Sizes: From 50mm to 1000mm centre distance

Our range of custom mechanisms includes:

  • Globoidal
  • Barrel
  • Conjugate
