摘要:
Various exemplary methods, systems, and devices for limiting torque in robotic surgical tools are provided. In general, a surgical tool can be configured to releasably and removably couple to a robotic surgical system. The robotic surgical system can include a motor configured to provide torque to the surgical tool to drive two different functions of the surgical tool. The surgical tool can include two torque limiting mechanisms, each associated with the motor, each associated with one of the functions, and each configured to limit an amount of the torque from the motor that drives the function associated therewith.
