Need help coupling two parallel shafts? Electromate offers a full family of Power-On Clutches

October 15, 2019

Power-on Clutches are used to couple two parallel shafts. The armature hub assembly is mounted to the same shaft as the rotor assembly. The armature hub accommodates a pulley, gear, sprocket, etc., to transmit torque to the second shaft. The field assembly is mounted on the shaft and retained by a loose-fitting pin or bracket through the anti-rotation tab.

Typical Applications of Clutches include:

Packaging Machinery

Medical Equipment

Conveyors

Postal Sorters/Readers

Document Feeders

Textile Equipment

Mobile Power Equipment

Copiers/Printers

Electromate offers a full family of Power-On Clutches, from Inertia Dynamics, for most applications.  All Inertia Dynamics clutches are recognized by Underwriters Laboratories to both U.S. and Canadian safety requirements.

As emissions regulations continue to get stricter, OEMS are looking for ways to meet or beat the specifications to ensure that their equipment is in compliance. One of the largest adders to emissions is idling gas/diesel-powered equipment. As an operator is using a machine, they will increase the idle RPM so that there is plenty of power on the PTO (Power Take Off). Having this extra power allows the machinery to operate efficiently and without strain.
