All Torque Transmissions has been distributing ConInTec torque limiters for decades. Our relationship with the Bologna manufacturer of torque limiters and overload protection devices is one that we are proud. We are continuing to add to the stock levels that we keep in Australia.
We recently supplied a ComInTec 7.280 DSR/GEC Roller Device torque limiter coupling, with bores of 120 and 100mm. The 7.280 DSR/GEC provides excellent design flexibility. The limiter pictured below is rated for settings between 2,000 – 12,000Nm torque range, and is employed in a sewerage treatment application.
For comparison, below is our smallest stocked model.

The W22 range from WEG was introduced to offer a high-quality, IP66-rated series of electric motors for a reasonable price. We like to specify W22 motors when applications are more demanding than normal, or where machine reliability is paramount.

Ribbon blenders are renowned for their versatility in blending many forms of powders and bulk solids. Industries range from fertilisers, ceramics, polymers, food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals, and the quantities involved can also vary greatly.
For many years, ribbon blenders utilised a gear reducer with a male input shaft, belt driven (or chain driven in higher load, lower speed applications) from the electric motor. Inherent issues with the requirements of machine guarding, belt (or chain) tensioning, and maintenance have always been factored in to this gear reducer layout.
With the constant development of variable speed drives (VSDs) for electric motor control, ribbon blender manufacturers have been able to reduce their reliance on intermediate power transmission and are now using direct-drive gearmotors.
The type of reducer used in ribbon blenders varies dependent upon the usual machine design requirements, as well as the powders and bulk solids being blended. Space considerations, torque demands, and duty cycles all help to determine whether a bevel-helical, parallel shaft, inline helical, or planetary gearbox is the best option.
At All Torque, one of our greatest strengths is to come up with in-house answers to power transmission design problems, using a mixture of products which are often from different manufacturers.
Sometimes, there is only one answer to a problem.
When customers come to us with issues in power transmission, there are normally a few ways to solve the problem. Sometimes, there is only one way, although the one way may involve utilising disparate components.
Combining our own manufacturing and machining capabilities with standard product offerings, we arrive at solutions that are seldom available from a single-brand supplier.
Australia has a diverse history of mechanical power transmission equipment. A lot of it has come in from overseas on machinery and it is not supported in Australia, or even worse, is obsolete. We can consider the design requirements of the application and offer a suitable alternative.
