I've been told that the breakers aren't instant, so you might be able to run for a very short amount of time at that current/torque, but you probably want to design to pick a pretty small percentage of it (10-25 should work ok, correct me if i'm wrong) and try to operate generally around there (driving your robot or whatever, but without obstacles, or driving your arm with a ball but not into the wall or with someone hanging on it...!)
