Fail-Safe Spring Set Electromagnetic Clutches
Fail-Safe Spring Set Electromagnetic Clutches
Fail-Safe clutches offer a reliable, spring applied, positive acting clutch that quickly starts a wide range of equipment.
Electrically operated, the clutch's coil is sealed within a stationary housing which is supported on ball bearings. A powerful electromagnetic force disengages the disc pack unit to provide a low-drag neutral.
Internal compressive forces are contained within the clutch and are not transmitted through the bearings. The radial magnetic flux path provides maximum torque throughout the life of the unit.
A significant portion of Carlyle Johnson Machine Co's production is devoted to the design and manufacture of special clutches, brakes and integrated systems designed to specific user requirements. If you need a custom electromagnetic clutch solution we have the experience and skills to meet your transmission problem challenge.
