Pneumatic Industrial Combination Clutch and Brakes

WORKING PRINCIPAL

The AirTorq Clutch/Brake combination unit consists of an air actuated disc clutch & spring applied Disc Brake. Its compact design combined with its high thermal capacity & low air consumption makes it ideal for high speed, high cyclic, heavy-duty industrial application. When cylinder is pressurized, the piston clamps the clutch disc to the hub which transmits the torque to the shaft. When cylinder exhausts, the springs moves the piston in the opposite direction clamping the brake disc & stopping the shaft. Overlap between clutch & Brakes is completely eleminated.

MOUNTING

The hub is pressed & keyed to the driven shaft. The clutch disc is fastened to the driving members (a flywheel in most applications) the brake disc is reacted the the machine frame. These plates can be suspended on twelve pins & guide bushes or on two coaxial or non-coaxial bolts. Twelve-point or two-point suspension can be combined.
