Small clutches for use in copy machines, printers, and other peripheral devices. This one-piece assembly features a custom-molded gear or timing pulley designed to your specifications. Most clutches use a permanent magnet to disengage the armature when it is not in use.
All clutches are bi-directional.
Custom Moulded Gear.
The MIC assembly includes a custom-molded gear or timing pulley designed to your specifications.
One Piece Assembly.
The entire assembly is delivered pre-assembled, so it simply slides onto the shaft. There are no adjustments to make or gaps to set.
Bi-directional Operation.
The clutch has the ability to drive clockwise or counterclockwise.
Permanent Magnet Return; All standard units come with a permanent magnet armature return attached to the inside of the gear. This provides a fast and smooth disengagement of the armature when power is released to the clutch coil.
Zero Backlash; If needed the armature can incorporate a one-piece spring that eliminates backlash.
Long Life; Special bushings allow for millions of operating cycles for most applications.
D-cut Bore; The bore of the clutch is made to fit a D-cut shaft to simplify installation and eliminate the need for set screws.
Two Clutch Power Connection Options Available; MIC clutches can come complete with a lead wire and a customer's specified terminal or the standard connector built into the clutch coil housing.
