Study of a Torque Limiter
This thesis is completed on request from Saab Avitronics. Saab Avitronics produces and creates electric actuators that are employed to handle the wing flaps on flying vessels, both for the civil- and military market. This specific project seeks to review a brand new kind of torque limiter which will be an integral part of an actuator. The primary task of the torque limiter is to detach the driving torque if the system goes to an undesirable stop.
