Protect your driveline with SafeSet intelligence
Rotating equipment drivelines are long-term investments worth protecting. Every minute of unplanned downtime caused by overload is a loss in production. With outstanding safety and reliability, Voith’s torque limiting couplings protect all components in the driveline, resulting in smooth operation, less wear and tear, and maximum performance of your equipment.

SafeSet EZi
Simplifying and adding value to the growing need for faster delivery times, more accessible and safer handling during operation, and simple maintenance of torque limiting couplings is now a reality with our newest generation of SafeSet EZi couplings.
Our SafeSet product portfolio
Voith's comprehensive product portfolio covers a range of torque limiting couplings with capacities from 1 to 20,000 kNm.
Tailor-made designs provide additional advantages to the production process. SafeSet, SlipSet, SmartSet, and AutoSet ensure the safe operation of the driveline by releasing or slipping at an exact torque level. In the event of a catastrophic, high-torque occurrence, the torque limiting couplings interrupt the power flow in the driveline, which minimizes damage and production downtime. The Voith Dtect System alerts you in real-time about torque overload situations, helping further protect your investment.

SlipSet – coupling with peak shaving
In a temporary torque overload, the coupling slips to limit the torque peaks and enables continuous production. If the blockage persists, the SlipSet coupling slips until the drive can be stopped for the obstruction to be cleared. To monitor the maximum slip angle possible, we recommend using the Dtect torque system.m.
Features and benefits
Design features
- Ideally suited for applications requiring short peak loads
- Adjustable torque settings from 50 to 100% of maximum torque setting
- Slip at a pre-set torque
- Immediate slip in the event of a torque overload
Benefits
- Ensures continuous production due to torque limitation without disengagement
- Minimized installation cost thanks to a compact design
- Less maintenance cost due to instant overload protection that protects your driveline from premature wear
SmartSet – coupling with peak ride through and controlled release
Features and benefits
Design features
- Ability to slip up to 120° during a torque peak
- Adjustable torque settings from 50 to 100% of maximum torque setting
- Mechanical slip and release mechanism
Benefits
- Ability to slip without release to reduce the short duration and dynamic peak torques
- Precisely adjustable slip and release torque
- Maximum driveline protection
- Full release during blockage
AutoSet – coupling with controlled slip and automatic reset
Features and benefits
Design features
- Ensures continuous production due to torque limitation without disengagement
- Automatic resetting of slip angle
- Complete disengagement during a long peak event
- Automatically resets itself to the pre-set torque limit after a longer overload/complete blockage
Benefits
- Improves production, as no resetting is needed for short peaks
- Lower maintenance cost with no manual resetting needed
- Less investment cost, as no additional equipment is needed
- Continuous operation, even during an overload, improves production uptime
