Description

The red characteristic curve for continuous duty is used for project planning. The configuration rule prescribes that the operating point of a cycle (Ma_kub) must be lower than the characteristic curve for continuous duty.

The blue characteristic curve for short-time duty is used for project planning. The project planning rule prescribes that the black characteristic curve of the cycle or the maximum application torque Mmax must be lower than the characteristic curve for short-time duty.
