What will an overload on a torque limiter cause?

An overload on a torque limiter can lead to mechanical failure or damage to the connected components, as the system may not be able to withstand forces beyond its design specifications. This could result in slippage, excessive wear, or complete breakage of the torque limiter itself. Additionally, it may compromise the integrity of the machinery, leading to costly downtime and repairs. Properly calibrated torque limiters are essential to prevent such overload situations.
