Product Profile of Bearing Mounted Clutches
Electromatic engineers pvt. Ltd. An iso:9001:2000 company, under the brand name unitorq is the manufacturer of group industrial clutches and brakes. Being a part of that bearing mounted clutches are normally off type and operate on dc voltage. Salient features of bearing mounted clutches are as follows:
- A.C. To d.C. Conversion is done by means of a suitable rectifier.
- Switching of the clutch can be on either side.
- However, once application demands, higher switching frequency / faster engagement and disengagement time, switching must be carried out on d.C. Side.
- To restrict the high inductive voltage / back emf a suitable suppressor and capacitor network is provided across the contactor coil
Application of bearing mounted clutches are:
Textile machines, material handling equipments, steel plant machinery, packaging machines, marble cutting machines, stone polishing machines, industrial washing machines, photocopiers, plate saws and door opening systems.
